OverviewAI-generated summary

Tara Johnson's research focuses on neurodevelopmental outcomes in infants, particularly those at high risk for conditions such as cerebral palsy. Her work investigates the predictive value of specific infant neurological assessments, including Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination subscores and Prechtl's General Movement Assessment. Johnson also studies the impact of various factors on early infant neurodevelopment, such as maternal diabetes and congenital heart disease, utilizing multimodal developmental assessments. Her publications explore novel assessment combinations and the feasibility of advanced imaging techniques like magnetoencephalography in specific infant populations. Johnson collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Alexa Escapita and Namarta Kapil, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 7, 41 total publications, and 252 total citations.
