Supplement to: Role of early motor experience in infants with Down syndrome (DS)

Infants with Down syndrome show significant lower physical activity and poorer sleep quality compared to typically developing infants. This one-year administrative supplement project aims to (a) investigate the effect of GM and GM+FM interventions on physical activity and sleep pattern in infants with DS, and (b) recruit and supervise two underrepresented graduate students to provide them with research training and establish a mini- career training program for them. This supplement project will support and implement the NIH UNITE and NICHD STRIVE initiatives by diversifying the biomedical workforce.
