Proper Citation: Research Network in Early Experience and Brain Development (RRID:SCR_003271)

Description: Portal on how the experiences of early childhood are incorporated into the structures of the developing brain, and how, in turn, those changes in the structures of the brain influence behavior. The network explores how knowledge of brain development can guide us in understanding of behavioral development and vice versa. It focuses specifically on sensitive periods and neural plasticity, the reciprocal phenomena whereby (a) the brain is negatively affected if certain experiences fail to occur within a certain time period, and (b) the brain is altered by experience at virtually any point in the life span. Here we consider not only how the structure of experience is incorporated into the structure of the brain, but also how this knowledge can influence the decisions we make about intervening in the lives of children. Research and other projects conducted by the Network fall into four broad categories: * Effects of early experience on brain development * New methods for studying brain-behavior relations * Comparative studies of early brain-behavioral development * Impact on public policy: Educating educators and the media RESOURCES NimStim Face Stimulus Set The Research Network on Early Experience and Brain Development has developed a battery of 646 facial expression stimuli for use in its own and other studies of face and emotion recognition. Images include the following expressions, displayed by a variety of models of various genders and races: fearful, happy, sad, angry, surprised, calm, neutral, disgusted. They are making these stimuli available to the public free of charge with registration and acceptance of the terms and conditions to use the stimulus set.
