CHILD AND ADOLESCENT PSYCHIATRY

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


OUR MISSION

The mission of this area includes research, training, and clinical care for
child and adolescent disorders, as well as their prevention. The Division of
Child and Adolescent Psychiatry includes over 120 faculty members, grouped into
research and clinical domains, with many faculty members also participating in
research or clinical training. Their research is funded by federal and state
government, foundations, philanthropy, and industry. Clinical work is conducted
at the NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital (NYP) and ColumbiaDoctors, as well as in
school and community settings. Major accomplishments over the years include:

 * Developing structured diagnostic interviews and delineation of criteria for
   the major childhood and adolescent disorders
 * Establishing the efficacy of major medication classes in key disorders,
   including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, and major
   depression
 * Developing and demonstrating the efficacy of psychotherapy modalities for
   anxiety and depression
 * Identifying screening approaches, risk factors, and preventive measures for
   teen suicide

What sets the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry apart is the
excellence of our research, clinical, and training programs. The partnership
between the Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NewYork-Presbyterian, and
the New York State Psychiatric Institute brings together the best of innovative
research, diligent training, and exemplary clinical care.


RESEARCH GOALS

 * To understand the risk factors, pathophysiology, and course of developmental
   disorders and childhood psychopathology
 * To develop and test new treatment approaches, outcome measures, and
   diagnostic tools
 * To train child psychiatrists and psychologists in evidence-based and
   neuroscience-informed assessment and treatment
 * To translate and implement research evidence into community-based services
   that fit within the NYP and New York State Office of Mental Health (NYS-OMH)
   systems of care


CURRENT RESEARCH

The Division has maintained historical strengths while pivoting to add new
methodology and new faculty. Our research has increasingly prioritized the use
of neuroscience to understand the developmental roots of psychopathology. We
continue to build on Columbia’s rich history of epidemiological sampling and
longitudinal assessment while now incorporating neuroscience and technology. 


ABOUT THE DIVISION OF CHILD & ADOLESCENT PSYCHIATRY

The division works closely with the department leadership and collaborates with
