Respiratory Health, Air Pollution, Childhood Development
ASSOCIATED group
Group Leader
Jordi Sunyer Deu
The prenatal and postnatal periods are critical in the origins of chronic diseases such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, cognitive development, and the origins of asthma and allergy. The major scientific objective of the group is to perform epidemiological studies on the early-life origins of the effects of environmental contaminants, nutrition and lifestyles during prenatal and postnatal life on the development and health of children, including maturation of the neurobehavioral system, obesity, metabolism, respiratory health and mental health.
