Lynn M Yee, MD, MPH
Yee Research Lab, Northwestern Medicine Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine
Dr. Yee reached out to the ND Core when her lab became involved in multiple national studies requiring experienced staff to administer various developmental assessments. One of these studies, part of the RECOVER Initiative, focused on following children and mothers who tested positive for COVID-19 during pregnancy. The Core provided essential expertise and experience to the Northwestern Maternal Fetal Medicine site for assessing the neurodevelopmental progress of children born to participating mothers through follow-up components integrated into the RECOVER PASC Pediatric Cohort. This vital task was efficiently facilitated by the ND Core team, who administered developmental assessments including Bayley-IV, DAS II, WPPSI, and DP-4, leveraging their expertise and knowledgeable examiners to ensure comprehensive data collection.
"ND Core examiners played a fundamental role in obtaining valuable information on the impact of OB research projects on child growth and development, providing guidance for application to healthcare and future research projects. We are grateful for their support and collaboration."
