Alcohol, Babies and the Death Penalty: Saving Lives by Analysing the Shape of the Brain

2013-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Alcohol can damage the brains of unborn babies. Shape analysis can assess the damage in fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. Kanti Mardia, Fred Bookstein and John Kent explain how it works, and how it can help babies and even murderers.
