Maternal brain adaptations have been found across pregnancy and postpartum, but little is
known about the long-term effects of parity on the maternal brain. Using neuroimaging and …

Pregnancy involves maternal brain adaptations, but little is known about how parity
influences women's brain aging trajectories later in life. In this study, we replicated previous …

Maternal brain adaptations occur in response to pregnancy, but little is known about how
parity impacts white matter and white matter ageing trajectories later in life. Utilising global …

Pregnancy is accompanied by complex biological adaptations, including extreme hormonal
fluctuations. Moreover, changes on the endocrine level are accompanied by changes in …

Women that become mothers face notable physiological adaptations during this life-period.
Neuroimaging studies of the last decade have provided grounded evidence that women's …

Pregnancy is a unique neuroplastic period in adult life. This longitudinal study tracked brain
cortical changes during the peripartum period and explored how the type of childbirth affects …

Pregnancy and the early postpartum period alter the structure of the brain; particularly in
regions related to parental care. However, the enduring effects of this period on human brain …

Neuroimaging researchers commonly assume that the brain of a mother is comparable to
that of a nulliparous woman. However, pregnancy leads to pronounced gray matter volume …

There is growing evidence that pregnancy may have a significant impact on the maternal
brain, causing changes in its structure. To investigate the patterns of these changes, we …

Pregnancy involves radical hormone surges and biological adaptations. However, the
effects of pregnancy on the human brain are virtually unknown. Here we show, using a …
