      Well firstly I think study brain development is really interesting!

      An adult or older person already has a fully developed brain that won’t change that much. But a baby has a brain that is constantly changing every single day.

      I think its quite interesting to study the baby brain because you can look at how diseases or disorders develop and then you can try to prevent them. At an adult stage, however, its much more difficult. With that being said, its not any easier to study a baby’s brain, I just find it interesting personally!
