Study Details

The goal of this 13-year follow up of a randomized control trial is to study the effect of maternal choline supplementation on offspring cognition in adolescence. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: Does a higher dose of maternal choline choline (930 mg/d day supplementation) lead to improved cognition in adolescence including hippocampal-dependent episodic memory and executive functioning when compared to lower dose supplementation (480 mg/d). In this follow-up of a clinical trial participants will complete online cognition testing and emotion testing.
