Title of project:
The additional effect of paternal mental health on early childhood neurodevelopment
Proposal summary:
Accumulating data from epidemiological and molecular studies indicate that adverse early childhood neurodevelopment is a risk factor of neuropsychiatric illness in later life. Among several factors that can affect early childhood neurodevelopment, maternal health, including both her physical and mental health, have been convincingly identified as predictors of children’s neurodevelopment. However, the evidence concerning the additional effect of paternal mental health on the child`s neurodevelopment is sparse warranting further research in this area. This research fits in the Paternal Origins of Health and Disease concept (POHAD).
Impact of research:
The findings from our study will provide insights to health professionals and policy makers into the potential impact of paternal mental health on early child (neuro) development (in addition to impact of maternal mental health).
