Infant EEG and Event-Related Potentials

Infancy is a time of rapid growth, when brain plasticity is at a maximum. Event-related potentials (ERPs) are one of the few methods that can easily and safely be used to study this process and have led to exciting discoveries about human brain functioning and the neural basis of cognition.

Michelle de Haan is a Senior Lecturer at the University College London Institute of Child Health and Honorary Neuropsychologist at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust. She obtained her PhD in child psychology and neuroscience from the University of Minnesota in 1996. Her current research focuses on understanding the roles of brain development and life experience in normal and atypical development of memory and of perception of social information.
