PlacLANG: Linking placental function and language development for early prediction of schizophrenia

The placenta is the first and most important organ that we develop. It supplies oxygen and nutrients to the growing fetus and protects the brain during critical stages of development. When placental function is disrupted—resulting in obstetric complications (OCs)—the consequences may extend far b...
