@PEDALCam @paulramchandani @christineofar Dear Paul, many congratulations on this excellent research - a very good example of why it is always preferable to prevent rather than cure and why early intervention is easier, cheaper and way more effective, to the benefit of the child, the parents and evryone else. Brilliant!.

[PEDAL Cam @PEDALCam]
