ABSTRACT
Since its inception, the life course approach has been widely used in the socio-demographic research and sociological
studies. The use of this perspective in health research has spread for some years, although its use in pediatrics has been
limited. This work presents the main concepts of the life course approach and some methodological principles for the development
of research from this perspective. In addition, a series of research projects that have used this approach as a
conceptual basis in their design and implementation are included, as well as some sources of information that can be used
for the development of research since this conceptualization in Mexico.
