Join the New Jersey Alliance for Clinical and Translational Science (NJ ACTS) on Tuesday, September 26, at 1 pm ET for a presentation of the NJ ACTS Special Populations Core 2023 Seminar Series – The Future of Families and Child Wellbeing Study and Opportunities to Study Multiple Dimensions of Health with Sarah Pachman, PhD. 

Dr. Sarah Pachman is the Director of Research and Policy at Princeton University’s Bendheim-Thoman Center for Research on Child and Family Wellbeing. She earned her PhD in Social Work at Rutgers University. Her research aims to understand the relationship between childhood contexts – primarily experiences of economic and housing hardship and exposure to proximate neighborhood conditions – and adolescent wellbeing and how policies may serve as levers to mitigate potentially adverse conditions.

Sarah will give a brief overview of the core FFCWS. She will review available survey and collaborative datasets including biological indicators and medical records. She will provide a summary of analyses that use these data to examine the physical and mental health of mothers and their children using the various components of the FFCWS.
