The MOthers and BAbies in Norway and Denmark study combines two rich data sources to investigate an important childhood illness.
In the past, researchers believed that most cases of cerebral palsy (CP) were caused by birth-related injury, but a new study shows that some of the cause may be due to hereditary factors.
Updated
The CP Study is based on data from the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (MoBa) and its Danish equivalent "Bedre Sundhed for Mor og Barn" (BSMB).
