Experts announced the launch of a new “and exciting study, through which thousands of children from all over the United Kingdom will be tracked throughout their lives.
The study of the “New Age generation” will include about 30,000 children from the country, according to the British Press Agency, “BA Midia”.
This is the first long -term tracking study launched in the country for a quarter of a century.
The researchers hope that the new study will provide valuable visions about the next generation of children.
The study aims to provide important information about the physical, mental and social development of children, and will also discuss environmental and social changes.
The study can also shed light on how technology affects the lives of young people, as experts indicate tremendous technological progress since the launch of the last major long -term major study in the United Kingdom in 2001 and 2002.
“The world has changed tremendously since then,” the participating director, Professor Alyssa Godman, told the British News Agency.
Judman added that the study of “the new age generation represents a prominent scientific project that will improve the lives of children and benefit science and society for many years.”
With the launch of the project, which cost 42.8 million pounds (58.1 million dollars), parents will provide data in two main phases of the lives of their children, between the ages of 9 and 11 months, and again between the age of three and four years.
The “New Age” study is scheduled to follow the children participating in the project throughout their lives.
The study – which is funded by the Fund’s Research and Innovation Infrastructure Fund and the UK and the Fund’s Economic and Social Research Council – is the first new long -term study of a group of births at the United Kingdom 25 years ago.
Other long -term studies led to important scientific developments and long -term political initiatives.
