DESCRIPTION:About the speaker:\n\nDr. Luby is the Samuel and Mae S. Ludwig
  Professor of Psychiatry (Child) at the Washington University School of M
 edicine where she founded and leads the Early Emotional Development Progr
 am. As an infant/preschool psychiatrist her program of research has focus
 ed on early childhood affective psychopathology and emotional development
  for >35 years. Based on this work\, she is an elected member of the Nati
 onal Academy of Medicine. With her colleagues\, she has conducted some of
  the first large scale empirical studies of preschool onset depression an
 d provided data on the validity\, clinical characteristics\, longitudinal
  course and brain developmental outcomes of early onset depression. With 
 close colleague Deanna Barch\, she has conducted a 17-year longitudinal s
 tudy that investigates behavior and brain development in a sample enriche
 d for depressive symptoms arising at age 3 that includes 5 waves of neuro
 imaging. Our findings have informed the impact of key psychosocial factor
 s including maternal support and early life adversity on brain and behavi
 oral development. These studies have established the powerful role of ear
 ly childhood caregiver support and psychosocial adversity on neurodevelop
 ment\, a finding with tremendous potential to impact the developmental he
 alth of children worldwide and that has resulted in a powerful and novel 
 early intervention. This work was recently recognized by the Dean of the 
 School of Medicine with the research innovator award. More \n\nhttp://nex
