Childbirth has far-reaching consequences for the mother's neural structure and function. In new research, Lotter and colleagues perform a comprehensive evaluation of neural function, hormone levels, and mood within a longitudinal design of post-partum women. The authors implicate new candidate neural processes following childbirth, which may have implications for resilience from and susceptibility to psychiatric disorders during this time.
