«Un libro escrito con erudición, rigor y cercanía, en el que Susana nos acompaña, desde su experiencia personal y su sólida trayectoria científica, en el viaje que da vida a la humanidad . Nazareth Castellanos

La neurociencia, por fin, respalda lo que las mujeres ya intuíamos: la maternidad nos transforma. Gracias a estudios rigurosos que analizan imágenes cerebrales, hoy podemos demostrar que el embarazo modifica profundamente el cerebro de la mujer, facilitando así la transición a la maternidad.

Neuromaternal se nutre de la evidencia científica más puntera para describir las adaptaciones neuronales durante el embarazo y la maternidad. Las investigaciones presentadas en este libro, muchas de ellas dirigidas por la propia autora, nos muestran la dimensión biológica de la «matrescencia , situando el proceso como uno de los periodos de mayor plasticidad cerebral en la vida adulta. El lector descubrirá el papel crucial de las hormonas en estos cambios, su duración y su impacto en la salud y en la conexión con el bebé. Asimismo, se mostrará qué hay de cierto en los supuestos déficits cognitivos atribuidos a menudo a la maternidad. En el trayecto, se evidenciará el sesgo de sexo en biomedicina y, en particular, en neurociencia.

El 85 % de las mujeres experimenta un embarazo en algún momento de su vida. Si abogamos por una visión integral de la salud de la mujer, es esencial visibilizar esta experiencia tan transformadora en múltiples niveles, incluyendo el cerebral.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"An erudite, rigorous but accessible book. Drawing on her personal experiences and solid scientific credentials, Susana explains the journey that gives life to humanity."- Nazareth Castellanos

Finally, neuroscience supports what women have always known: maternity transforms us. Thanks to brain imaging, it is possible to show that pregnancy profoundly changes women's brains, facilitating their transition into mothers.

Neuromaternal relies on the latest scientific evidence to describe the neurological adaptations that occur during pregnancy and motherhood. The research presented in this book, much of it led by the author herself, explores the biological dimensions of "matrescence," revealing it to be one of the periods of greatest neuroplasticity in our adult lives. Readers will discover the crucial role played by hormones in these changes, how long their effects last, and their impact on health and the mother-infant bond. They'll also learn if there's any truth to the cognitive deficits cited by many new mothers. In the process, they'll gain new insights into the gender biases in biomedicine and, especially, neuroscience.

Eighty-five percent of women will experience pregnancy at some point in their lives. Advocating for a comprehensive approach to women's health means understanding the many aspects of this transformative experience, including at the level of the brain.
