Abstract
We examined trajectories of hippocampal growth from 4-10 years of age in relation to gestational air pollutants (PM2.5; N=336). Using latent growth modeling, early gestational PM2.5 was associated with a slower rate of growth in the right hemisphere and that late gestational PM2.5 was associated with slower growth bilaterally.
