This Is Our Fight

A battle is raging across a trillion pathways in the human brain. We know more about the body than we ever have and yet we're still just beginning to understand how to join this fight.

Elementary students from across Kingston have been participating in Brain Reach over the year, a program that has graduate students visit the classrooms once a month to teach them about the exciting field of Neuroscience! The program culminated in creating scientific posters incorporating what they've learned during Brain Reach session and their own research. You can find the winning posters in the halls of the CNS!
James Reynolds (Biomedical and Molecular Sciences) and collaborators are receiving $1.25 million over five years to fund the Infant and Early Mental Health (IEMH) Care Pathways Project. Supported by CIHR’s call to develop Mental Health in the Early Years Implementation Science, his team will evaluate the effectiveness of IEMH Care Pathways model in Canadian communities in the prevention and treatment of early childhood mental health disorders. The program will incorporate decades of previous research regarding early mental health and its importance in long-term wellbeing. This research effort will also assess the IEMH Core Component Framework, a tool used by community organizations to determine the strength of their own IEMH programs and prioritize areas of improvement. The critical analysis will be used to create a more effective and systematic framework for Canadian communities to follow when developing their own IEMH pathways. As a result, this research will enable a better understanding of the necessary responses to support children displaying risks of poor mental health outcomes.
