Visual tracking in very preterm infants at 4 mo predicts neurodevelopment at 3 y of age

Background: Typically developing infants track moving objects with eye and head movements in a smooth and predictive way at 4 mo of age, but this ability is delayed in very preterm infants. We hypothesized that visual tracking ability in very preterm infants predicts later neurodevelopment. Method:...
