Persistent DNA methylation changes associated with prenatal mercury exposure and cognitive performance during childhood

Prenatal exposure to mercury, a known neurotoxic metal, is associated with lower cognitive performance during childhood. Disruption of fetal epigenetic programming could explain mercury’s neurodevelopmental effects. We screened for epigenome-wide methylation differences associated with maternal pren...
