The global health case report
BOX Global health case reports published by BMJ Case Reports analyse the social determinants of health (the causes of the causes of disease in individual patients)
Econeurobiology and brain development in children
The Econeurobiology of the brain describes the environment in which an individual’s brain develops. This paper explores the complex neural mechanisms that support and evaluate enrichment at various stages of development, providing an overview of how they contribute to plasticity and enhancement of both achievement and health. It explores the deep benefits of enrichment and contrasts them with the negative effects of trauma and stress on brain dev…
