Researchers uncovered how both maternal and fetal genes, alongside nutritional factors, influence the development of a baby's cerebral cortex. Their research, leveraging the UK Biobank's extensive data, found a direct association between higher birth weight, influenced by specific genetic variants, and increased cortical surface area.
