28 kwi 2021 · Here, we synthesize evidence that experiences associated with childhood SES affect not only the outcome, but also the pace of brain development, and consider the implications of early brain...
Nutrition is critical in supporting healthy brain development early in life, with long-lasting, and often, irreversible effects on an individual’s cognitive development and life-long mental health.
1 kwi 2014 · Presented here is an overview of the pathway from early nutrient deficiency to long-term brain function, cognition, and productivity, focusing on research from low- and middle-income countries.
2 lis 2022 · This chapter discusses some of the remarkable breakthroughs, new horizons and challenges in the field of early life nutrient–brain interactions by using what has been discovered in the field of iron and brain biology as a paradigm for how these interactions occur and are regulated.
The science of early brain development can inform investments in early childhood. These basic concepts, established over decades of neuroscience and behavioral research, help illustrate why child development—particularly from birth to five years—is a foundation for a prosperous and sustainable society.
