Neuroscientist Dr. Liz Chrastil joins Lisa Dent to discuss what pregnancy does to a mother’s brain. Dr. Chrastil explains that after her 26 brain scans, key areas in her cortex shrank and thinned then remained that way long-term. You can find the proof-of-concept experiment in the journal Nature Neuroscience.
