About the Presenters
Dr. Catherine Monk is Professor of Medical Psychology in the Departments of Obstetrics & Gynecology (Ob/Gyn) and Psychiatry, Columbia University Medical Center, Research Scientist VI at the New York State Psychiatric Institute, and Director of Women’s Mental Health @Ob/Gyn, an initiative to embed mental health care in primary care. In her clinical role, she and her colleagues frequently treat women and their partners facing pregnancy loss or decisions to end pregnancies based on identified genetic risks and/or other abnormalities. Dr. Monk’s research brings together perinatal psychiatry, developmental psychobiology, and neuroscience to focus on the earliest influences on children’s developmental trajectories — those that happen in utero and how to intervene early to help women and prevent risk for mental health disorders in the future children. Among other funded projects, Dr. Monk is PI on two NIH R01s: Intergenerational Transmission of Deficits in Self-Regulatory Control and an intervention study Preventing Postpartum Depression: A Dyadic Approach Adjunctive to Obstetric Care.
