Romanian orphanage study reveals lasting impact of early care

NCT ID NCT00747396

Summary

This long-term study is tracking children who grew up in Romanian orphanages to understand how moving into foster care at a young age affects their brain development, mental health, and overall growth into adulthood. Researchers are comparing those placed in foster care to those who remained in institutions and to children who were never institutionalized. The goal is to gather knowledge about the lasting effects of early childhood experiences on the brain and behavior.
