Child development were evaluated by trained nurses and psychologists with the Bayley Scales of Infant Development (at 24 months), the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale (at 60 months) and also with questionnaires administered by trained interviewers to the mothers. Maternal food questionnaires were used to estimate fish consumption and the associations between levels of prenatal and postnatal hair mercury (from mothers and children) and scores of neurodevelopment. Keywords: Child development, Fish, Methylmercury, Prenatal exposure, Hair mercury
