This study finds that neonatal resting-state EEG aperiodic activity relates to 12-month communicative abilities in typically developing infants, showing an inverted U-shaped relationship.

This study tracks auditory neural development in infants using hdEEG, showing increased neural synchrony and reduced variability over the first year, with a nonlinear pattern of phase synchronization.

This study finds that fetal DHEA levels measured in newborn hair predict lower language scores at six months, while testosterone and cognitive abilities are not associated.

The paper investigates prenatal language learning in newborns using EEG, finding evidence of discrimination between familiar and unfamiliar rhymes, prosodic learning, and correlations between maternal depression, fetal stress, and later language development.
