SUMMARY:The Emergence of Consciousness in the Newborn Brain
LOCATION:Cambridge University: Wolfson College
DESCRIPTION:From the moment they are born\, babies begin an extraordinary 
 journey — learning to sleep\, feed\, connect with others and make sense 
 of the world around them. But how does this early experience shape the bra
 in and the beginnings of consciousness? This talk explores the powerful ro
 le of everyday experiences in helping build the brain’s networks and sup
 porting a baby’s ability to regulate itself and engage with others\, out
 lining how early relationships and biological rhythms work together to lay
  the foundations of the human mind. Speaker Professor Topun Austin is a Co
 nsultant Neonatologist and Affiliate Associate Professor at the University
  of Cambridge\, Honorary Professor of Neurophotonics at University College
  London\, and Senior Member at Robinson College. He has a broad range of i
 nterests in neonatal neuroscience from cerebrovascular physiology to sleep
 \, consciousness and cognition in the developing brain. Topun is the lead 
 for neonatal neurocritical care in Cambridge\, providing brain-orientated 
 care for preterm and sick newborn infants. He is also a visiting fellow at
  Nanyang Technology University in Singapore\, where he is collaborating on
  studies investigating mother-infant neural synchrony and early infant dev
 elopment. Details The event is open to all and is free to attend - please
