We are currently collaborating with researchers at The Keck School of Medicine of USC to examine impacts of exposure to fluoride and aluminum during pregnancy in relation to child neurodevelopmental outcomes in the “Maternal and Developmental Risks from Environmental and Social Stressors” (MADRES) cohort. We have research underway examining neurobehavioral outcomes assessed via the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) in relation to maternal urinary fluoride and aluminum levels.

We are collaborating with researchers at Health Canada and York University to examine impacts of prenatal and childhood fluoride exposure in relation to sleep behaviors in childhood among participants in the MIREC study. Sleep behaviors in MIREC have been assessed via accelerometry and self-report in middle-to-late childhood.
