Understanding Brain Connectivity in Child Development

One area of research conducted at the Child Development Lab focuses on understanding brain connectivity in child development. Researchers have used advanced scanning techniques to analyze the moment-to-moment activity and connectivity of brain networks in both term and pre-term infants.

Brain connectivity

They have found significant differences in brain connectivity between these two groups, with these early patterns being predictive of later developmental milestones. By studying brain connectivity, researchers aim to gain insights into the early stages of brain development and how it relates to various developmental outcomes, such as movement, language, cognition, and social behavior.

Applying Circular Economy Principles to Food Waste

At the Child Development Lab, our researchers are committed to finding innovative solutions to global challenges. One crucial area of focus is tackling the issue of food waste through the application of circular economy principles. We recognize that food waste has significant economic, environmental, and social implications, making it a pressing concern.

To address this problem, we aim to reduce and eliminate food waste by promoting the 4Rs: reduce, reuse, recycle, and recover. By emphasizing waste prevention and resource circularity, we strive to maximize resource efficiency in the food industry while minimizing its environmental impact.

Additionally, our team explores the vital link between food waste reduction and sustainable development. Through our efforts to save food waste, we actively contribute to the achievement of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
