OverviewAI-generated summary
Alexa Celeste Escapita's research focuses on early neurodevelopment in infants, particularly examining the effects of maternal diabetes and congenital heart disease. Her work investigates neurodevelopmental assessment tools and utilizes Magnetoencephalography (MEG) to study brain activity in infants. Escapita has published on topics including the reliability of general movement assessment training for predicting cerebral palsy and developmental language trajectories in children with critical congenital heart disease.
Her current postdoctoral work at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) in the SARA lab specifically addresses the early neurodevelopment of children born to mothers with diabetes. Previously, her research explored the neurodevelopment of infants with congenital heart disease. Escapita collaborates with researchers at UAMS, including Tara Johnson, Namarta Kapil, and Bittu Majmudar-Sheth, on shared publications.
