Borja Blanco

Dr. Borja Blanco is a Research Associate at the Department of Psychology, University of Cambridge, specializing in developmental neuroscience and infant cognition. His research employs advanced neuroimaging techniques like high-density diffuse optical tomography and fNIRS to investigate functional brain development during early childhood.

Research interests focus on:

• Neuroplasticity and bilingualism effects in infant brains
• Sleep-state modulation of neural connectivity
• Cross-cultural studies of cognitive development
• Clinical applications for ASD/ADHD early detection
• Wearable neurotechnology for infant monitoring

Dr. Blanco's work has pioneered methods for cot-side neuroimaging and home-based assessment of infant brain function. His publications demonstrate consistent focus on functional connectivity patterns, bilingual exposure effects, and clinical applications of optical neuroimaging techniques.
