. "The genetic factors that shape mental illness symptoms in kids differ from the ones that shape mental illness symptoms in adults."
Identifying these gene expressions, which the researchers call a "neurodevelopmental gene set", has also been shown to predict the risk of childhood psychiatric symptoms in children enrolled in a study in the Netherlands known as Generation R.Data analysis from brain banks shows that genes in the neurodevelopmental gene set tend to be most strongly expressed in the, tied to motor function, and their expression peaks before birth.
"Our research team at Mass General is searching for other factors during pregnancy—whether in the realm of healthy lifestyle , optimal prenatal care, or psychosocial support—that can confer resiliency in developing brains and protect against risk of psychiatric disorders in young people," Roffman added.
