Zusammenfassung:The Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (MoBa) is an observational, prospective study of up to 100 000 families. The study aims to find causes of diseases, with a focus on the interplay between early exposures and genetic factors. The collection of possible exposures starts in pregnancy.
