Preterm-born infants frequently suffer from an array of neurological damage, collectively
termed encephalopathy of prematurity (EoP). They also have an increased risk of presenting …

A major challenge in understanding brain injury in the premature brain is the establishment
of the precise human neuropathology at the cellular and molecular levels, as such …

The field of neonatal neurology, and specifically its focus on the premature infant, had its
inception in neuropathologic studies. Since then, the development of advanced imaging …

Modern neonatology no longer equates “near term” birth with “term-like” outcomes, as
evidenced by the reports in this issue. Indeed, it is now recognized that premature infants …

Brain development is a complex process of micro‐and macrostructural events that include
neuronal and glial proliferation and migration, myelination, and organizational development …

The major neuropathological substrate of human preterm brain injury is the encephalopathy
of prematurity, a term coined to characterize the multifaceted gray and white matter lesions …

Preterm neonates are surviving with a milder spectrum of motor and cognitive disabilities
that appear to be related to widespread disturbances in cell maturation that target cerebral …

White matter injury in the premature infant leads to motor and more commonly behavioral
and cognitive problems that are a tremendous burden to society. While there has been much …

Although neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is a common cause of childhood
developmental disability, its timing, duration, and outcomes are poorly defined. Biomarkers …

Translational research in preterm brain injury depends upon the delineation of the human
neuropathology in order that animal models faithfully reiterate it, thereby ensuring direct …
