30. Adult-Infant Brain Synchrony and the Importance of Maternal Cues

In this episode of Mommy Brain Revisited I talk with Dr. Ruth Feldman, the Simms-Mann Professor of Developmental Social Neuroscience at the Interdisciplinary Center (IDC) Herzlia with joint appointment at Yale Child Study Center. We talk about her recent research on neural synchrony and how maternal cues can aid in neural synchrony between strangers and infants. We also talk about the importance of understanding brain changes with perinatal mental illness and her ongoing research on the parental brain. Don’t miss this episode on cutting edge research from a leader in the field! For more information about Dr. Feldman’s research see https://ruthfeldmanlab.com/
