Elfe is one of the two cohorts making up the RECO-NAI research platform, the other being Epipage
2. The general aim of this platform is to set up an infrastructure to support the collection, highly secure storage and distribution of data on pregnancy, birth and children. The platform will use the information yielded by the child cohorts, both followed from birth, to address key issues in the areas of children's health, development and socialization from an overarching, multidisciplinary perspective. It will also ensure that the cohorts are given a high profile in the world of academic research (French and international), as well as among bodies, organizations and manufacturers with an interest in children. This will ensure optimum use of the data collected and promote their dissemination.
