Music impacts brain cortical microstructural maturation in very preterm infants: A longitudinal diffusion MR imaging study

Preterm birth disrupts important neurodevelopmental processes occurring from mid-fetal to term-age. Musicotherapy, by enriching infants’ sensory input, might enhance brain maturation during this critical period of activity-dependent plasticity. To study the impact of music on preterm infants’ brain...
