Critical periods in speech perception: new directions. (2015, background): “Functional imaging studies of newborn infants using both NIRS (Peña et al. 2003) and fMRI (Dehaene-Lambertz et al. 2002) reveal greater activation over classic temporal and frontal languages areas in response to continuous speech over nonspeech, with some studies revealing this specialization to…”
Brain Mechanisms in Early Language Acquisition (2010, background): “…the MRI device produces loud sounds making it necessary to shield infants’ ears. fMRI studies allow precise localization of brain activity and a few pioneering studies show remarkable similarity in the structures responsive to language in infants and adults (Dehaene-Lambertz et al., 2002, 2006).”
Early language acquisition: cracking the speech code (2004, methodology): “The techniques used in these studies have recently been applied to infants and young childre”
The neuronal basis and ontogeny of empathy and mind reading: review of literature and implications for future research. (2006, background): “A challenge for future research will be to refine the use of functional imaging techniques in infants ( Dehaene-Lambertz et al., 2002 ) and old age (Jones et al., in press) and to develop ‘‘interactive mind’’ paradigms suitable for infants, children and the aged to enable the assessment of the brain”
The Angular Gyrus (2013, background): “The involvement of the AG in reading comprehension was first suggested by Dejerine (1891), who documented a loss in the capacity to read and write words following damage to the left AG.”
Critical period regulation. (2004, background): “Functional MRI confirms the precursors of adult cortical language areas at three months of age (Dehaene-Lambertz et al. 2002).”
The early development of brain white matter: a review of imaging studies in fetuses, newborns and infants. (2014, background): “Overall, several mechanisms contribute to the global increase in WM volume, and more subtle MRI techniques are thus required to detail the axonal organization in the growing WM.”
Illuminating the developing brain: the past, present and future of functional near infrared spectroscopy. (2010, methodology): “There has been some infant research published using these techniques (i.e. Dehaene-Lambertz et al., 2002; Huotilainen et al., 2003; Imada et al., 2006; Tzourio-Mazoyer et al., 2002), however this work has generally been restricted to the study of sleeping, sedated or very young infants.”
