Every month, Kennedy Krieger Institute’s “Your Child’s Brain” podcast brings together experts in child brain health, including researchers, educators, physicians and therapists, as well as families, to discuss contemporary topics about child and youth brain health and development. Produced with assistance from WYPR-FM (National Public Radio), the podcast is released the first Thursday of the month and covers a range of topics related to the brain and development in children. Recent topics include:
- Cerebral palsy and mental health challenges
- Spinal cord injury
- The connection between hearing and speech
- Developmental and pediatric neuropsychiatry
- Sickle cell disease
- The impact of technology on reading and literacy
- Autism spectrum disorder and mental health in the community
- Tourette syndrome and tics
