Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Neonatal period and early life events are increasingly emerging as major determinants of human health. The first one thousand days of life have a pivotal influence on brain development, behaviour, mood, and vascular, metabolic, allergic, autoimmune, inflammatory and gastrointestinal disorders. The interaction between genes, nutrition, the environment, microbiota, exposure to stress, different substances and drugs, the occurrence of infections and traumatic events may have a great impact on an individual’s predisposition to diseases. A number of interventions and preventive strategies have recently been explored and current research is focusing on personalised and precision medicine starting from early ages. This Special Issue aims to collect the most recent evidence, original studies and new developments in medicine for this vulnerable and crucial period of life, focusing particularly on the role of nutrition in this period.
