NeuroNICU Articles You Need to Know | January 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 are across a wide range of topics from heart rate variability in babies with HIE, parent experiences with an early diagnosis of CP, using an in-NICU MRI, and trends in brain injury for babies with congenital heat disease.
