From Monkeys to Children: What Nonhuman Primates Can Teach Us About Psychiatric Disorders

When:  Sep 16, 2021 from 12:30:00 PM to 01:30:00 PM (ET)
Join us for a FREE and informative session as part of Biomedical Research Awareness Day (BRAD)!

We all experience anxiety throughout our life, which can be helpful for preparing us to take on challenges but debilitating when it becomes overwhelming and constant. Dr. Margaux Kenwood will present her research focused on childhood anxiety and associated changes in the brain using a nonhuman primate animal model. Her talk will explore how different animal models can help us pave the way for better psychiatric interventions. BRAD is a program of Americans for Medical Progress (AMP)
