NDARC researcher wins Columbia University fellowship

October 2015

Congratulations to NDARC’s Clare McCormack for being awarded a Reiner Postdoctoral Fellowship from the Department of Psychiatry, Columbia University for 2016-2017. Clare will be working in the Behavioural Medicine and Developmental Neuroscience research group.

Clare joined NDARC in February 2012 and is currently working on The Triple B study: Bumps, Babies, and Beyond. The Triple B study is a longitudinal birth cohort study which examines a wide range of biopsychosocial factors that relate to the health and development of children. Clare's particular research focus is on factors influencing early cognitive development, including the impacts of substance use in pregnant women and their partners during the prenatal period.
