The Generation R Study is a population-based prospective cohort study from fetal life until adulthood. The study is designed to identify early environmental and genetic pathways leading to normal and abnormal growth, development and health. An important focus of Generation R is to identify early life determinants of common (mostly non-communicable) diseases in adulthood. Pregnant women living in the Rotterdam area, the Netherlands, were included between 2002 and 2006. After birth, the children and their parents have been followed in multiple assessment waves up until young adulthood.

Generation R队列研究（Generation R Study）是一项从胎儿期延伸至成年期的基于人群的前瞻性队列研究。本研究旨在揭示介导正常与异常生长、发育及健康状态的早期环境与遗传通路，其核心重点为探明成年期常见（以非传染性疾病为主）疾病的早期生命决定因素。2002年至2006年间，荷兰鹿特丹地区的妊娠妇女被纳入本研究。产后，研究团队已通过多轮评估随访对子代及其父母进行长期追踪，直至其步入青年成年阶段。
