          Pregnant Woman’s Immune Response Could Lead to Brain Disorders in Kids

          A new report considers how maternal immune activation can affect neurodevelopment in the developing fetus, and concludes the mother's immune response to infection could alone be sufficient enough to cause life long changes in brain architecture, function and behavior in her offspring.

          Genetics influence how protective childhood vaccines are for individual infants

          A large, genome-wide study in children reveals genetic variants associated with differing levels of antibodies produced as a result of three common childhood vaccinations. Researchers identified two genetic loci associated with the persistence of vaccine-induced immunity following early life vaccinations. The results may help clinicians tailor personalized vaccine schedules to maximize the effectiveness of immunizations.
