Abstract
GMH poster competition*
This longitudinal study demonstrated that early life stress (in children age 3-5 years) predicts widespread reductions in total gray matter volume and cortical thickness across the right inferior parietal, superior parietal, superior temporal, and fusiform gyrus 3 years later, over and above current stressors.
