About

This webinar series – co-organized by the MCH Life Course Intervention Research Network and the National Academies' Forum for Children’s Well-Being – will focus on understanding how mental health disorders develop over the life span, with a special emphasis on prenatal, early, middle, and later childhood development. This series will focus on identifying gaps in our knowledge, exploring new strategies for using existing data to enhance our understanding of the developmental origins of mental disorders, reviewing potential approaches to prevention and optimization, and proposing new ways of framing how we understand, address, and prevent these disorders from a life course development perspective.

For the sixth webinar in this series, Erin Dunn, ScD, MPH (Center for Genomic Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital) will host a discussion on an epidemiological approach to preventing depression and other brain health conditions.
