Could you address the variable findings, through study design, or specifically, what is being tested in older ages? And can you connect these DHA studies to longer-term childhood cognitive outcomes?

Could you address the variable findings, through study design, or specifically, what is being tested in older ages? And can you connect these DHA studies to longer-term childhood cognitive outcomes?
Professor of psychology, John A. Colombo, PhD, who is affiliated with child language, clinical child psychology, and neuroscience doctoral programs, explains the importance of omega-3 DHA on brain development. Dr. Colombo reviews DHA studies and how outcomes are related to cognitive function, as well as how DHA relates to longer-term cognitive outcomes. Dr. Colombo describes advanced cognitive tests that target cognition in school-aged children, and how early exposure to DHA impacts later neurocognition.
