This Viewpoint examines recent developments in the quantitative characterization of fetal movements via kinematical analysis. We contend that fetal kinematics represents a powerful tool to investigate prenatal cognition and the prepostnatal continuity of cognitive development. The potential benefits of increased investigation into the kinematics of fetal movement are manifold, and apply to diverse fields including pediatric medicine and developmental biology.

Abstract

This Viewpoint examines recent developments in the quantitative characterization of fetal movements via kinematical analysis. We contend that fetal kinematics represents a powerful tool to investigate prenatal cognition and the prepostnatal continuity of cognitive development. The potential benefits of increased investigation into the kinematics of fetal movement are manifold, and apply to diverse fields including pediatric medicine and developmental biology.
