About This Trial
This project focuses on motor development, muscle growth and muscle activity. Using advanced, instrumented tests such as , the link between muscles and the movement characteristics will be studied. In addition, the evolution of these neuro-biomechanical determinants during the first year of life will be investigated. The examinations are planned for a group of high-risk infants (e.g. premature bir…
