Study brain flexibility in Chinese toddlers using special scans
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study uses MRI brain scans to look at how “neural flexibility” develops in typically developing toddlers. It compares toddlers who drink a specific formula gum or regular cow’s milk to understand how diet may relate to brain development.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can give written permission for your child to join the study
- Your child was born full-term (37+ weeks) and weighed at least 2.5 kg
- Your child is typically developing and is between 32 and 34 months old when starting
- Your child has no known learning, neurologic, or psychiatric diagnosis, based on an interview
- Close family members (parents or siblings) also do not have diagnosed learning/neurologic/psychiatric conditions
- For the last 2 months, your child has been consistently drinking either S-26 GOLD/ULTIMA GUM or regular cow’s milk—and you plan to keep it during the study

This study tests whether adding two special sugars found in breast milk (called HMOs) to baby formula helps Chinese infants grow and digest food better. It compares formula with HMOs to standard formula and to exclusive breastfeeding.
This study tests a special diet plan for preterm infants to help their brains develop better. It aims to see if a tailored diet can improve thinking and learning as the baby grows.
This study looks at how breastfeeding into toddlerhood affects a child's growth and health. It compares breast milk with cow's or oat milk to see what might be best for toddlers.
This study tests a new infant formula to see how healthy babies grow and develop. If your baby is healthy, full-term, and formula-fed, they may be able to join.
This study tests whether a new infant formula helps toddlers grow well and stay healthy. Researchers will compare infants who receive this formula with others to see if it supports normal development.
This study builds a shared database about early baby nutrition and health markers. It may help researchers find early “signals” in babies that relate to growth and development, which could guide future care.
