Celebrate Hungarian Science Day with us at a truly special event!
Join us on November 8th at 6 PM at the Liszt Institute Brussels for an enlightening discussion on preterm brain injury and development. The immature brain is vulnerable to unique injuries like white-matter injury, germinal matrix–intraventricular hemorrhage, and cerebellar hemorrhage. Advances in neuroimaging and neuroscience have deepened our understanding of these injuries and their dysmaturational effects on brain development. This review explores the three major forms of brain injury in very preterm infants, factors mediating altered brain development, and how these contribute to adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes, with implications for future neuroprotective strategies in neonatal care.
The lecture will be delivered by Dr. Zsuzsanna Nagy, a distinguished researcher and Clinical Chief Physician at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Semmelweis University.
