Carmen Alvarez is the guest editor of this Special Issue of Brain Sciences, which delves into the intricate relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and their profound impact on emotional, mental, and brain health. To illuminate the full spectrum of ACEs’ impact, the journal welcomes submissions that explore the effects of various stressors, including maternal stress (e.g., leading to dendritic shrinkage), physical stress (e.g., prenatal alcohol exposure, institutional neglect), and the complex interplay of socioeconomic and environmental factors (geographic disparities, access to early intervention).
