Developmental & Pediatric EEG: Studying the Growing Brain
Developmental EEG investigates how the brain forms and adapts from early life through adulthood. It examines the biological and environmental factors that shape neural circuits underlying perception, emotion, and cognition.
This page provides an overview of how brain development and neurodevelopmental disorders (such as ADHD or ASD) can be studied using Mentalab’s Explore Pro. Designed with young participants in mind, our system uses child-friendly EEG caps and soft electrodes to ensure a non-intrusive, low-stress experience. By prioritizing ecological validity, researchers can capture high-quality data during naturalistic play or social interactions, revealing how experiences and genes interact during brain maturation.
Our Solution
- Versatile Connectivity: Wireless & wired, high-resolution EEG recording (up to 32 channels) with high sampling rates to capture fast-frequency developmental signals.
- Precision Timing: High-precision event marking (< 1 ms) for accurate Event-Related Potential (ERP) measurements in infants and children.
- Pediatric Optimized: Lightweight, wearable design and child-sized caps that minimize participant burden and support movement-heavy studies.
- Broad Software Support: Seamless integration with leading stimulation platforms (E-Prime, PsychoPy) and analysis toolboxes like EEGLAB and MNE-Python.
- Inter-Brain Research: Hypersync for caregiver-child hyperscanning, enabling the study of parent-infant synchrony and social bonding in real-time.
