“…The imprinting phenomenon has been extensively studied in psychology (Wilkins 2009) and education for several decades. The literature emerging from these traditional domains acknowledges that personality and behavior are shaped by imprints from parents (Konishi et al 2014), general education, and experience with the surrounding environment. This body of knowledge suggests that environmental conditions shape the hardwiring of the brain and the development of the gene (Wilkins 2009) in such a way that our present state and behavior can be somehow a reflection of historical experiences, conditions, and constraints.…”

Since its first use in organisational research, nearly five decades ago, imprinting has gained recognition in entrepreneurship studies. Accordingly, this study utilises the behavioural concept to develop new theorisations to account for the entrepreneurial processes of immigrant entrepreneurs. It pays attention on its effects on immigrant entrepreneurs, particularly when it comes to their decision–making and behaviours towards business creation in Canada. A comprehensive analysis of a dataset generated from a systematically selected group of immigrant entrepreneurs revealed the complexity of their imprints at various stages of their entrepreneurial cycle in the North American country. It emerged that imprinting not only modified their behaviours, attitudes and cognition, but also shaped the trajectory of their entrepreneurial processes. That is, their imprints had an effect on how they identified business opportunities, the types of businesses they pursued, their level of entrepreneurial drive, and the types of resources they acquired or accessed in their new environment. Notably, following a period of normalisation in their new surroundings, their original imprints changed due to diminishing affinity with their country-of-origin. This holds research and policy implications as it uncovers an unfolding but less-understood entrepreneurship phenomenon.

“…Human cohort and population studies have either found higher placental weight 30,38 or placental weights that are not significantly different between ART and non-ART pregnancies. [39][40][41][42] While increased placental weight may not be an outcome of all ART-conceived pregnancies, for those ART pregnancies that do result in increased placental weight, it may represent a biologically meaningful outcome with short-and long-term health implications for the offspring. Thus, an important theme of this review is that investigating the underlying mechanisms and consequences involved in ART pregnancies that do result in placental macroscopic, microscopic, and/or molecular abnormalities cannot be ignored.…”

As the biological bridge between mother and fetus, the placenta is not only important for the health of the mother and fetus during pregnancy but it also impacts the lifelong health of the fetus. Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) involve procedures and exposures that are not characteristic of in vivo reproduction. Moreover, ART procedures occur when the gametes and embryos are undergoing extensive epigenetic reprogramming. Thus, the oxidative, thermal, and mechanical stress that ART procedures introduce can impact the biological processes of placental growth, development, and function with potentially long-lasting health effects for the offspring. Here, we focus on the placenta and summarize the clinical, morphological, and molecular outcomes of ART. This review highlights that ART procedures have additive effects on placental morphology as well as epigenetic disturbances and provides a foundation for reconceptualizing ART outcomes.
