NeuroNICU Articles You Need to Know | February 2023

We are grateful for the Newborn Brain Society for collecting this list every month.

This month we have just a few articles, and they focus on genetics, machine learning to predict neonatal seizures in babies with HIE and tools to predict CP in term-born neonates.
