BCS (Birth Cohort Study)

The Birth Cohort Study (BCS) is a research project that follows a group of individuals born around the same time, often within a specific year or period. The goal is to track their health, development, and life experiences over many years. By doing so, researchers can identify patterns and factors that influence outcomes like disease, behavior, and wellbeing. This longitudinal approach helps understand how early life influences later health and can inform policies and interventions to improve public health and quality of life for future generations.
