Center Member Research Presentation: Jessica Harder, MD
Join us for a Center Member Research Presentation by Dr. Jessica Harder on Environmental endocrine disrupting chemicals and neuropsychiatric outcomes in women. Following a brief presentation, there will be time for all participants to engage in a cross-disciplinary discussion with Dr. Harder and each other.
About the speaker: Jessica Harder, MD, is a neuropsychiatrist in the Department of Psychiatry at Mass General Brigham and Harvard Medical School. Dr. Harder’s research focuses on how environmental exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals affects neuropsychiatric symptoms in women across the lifespan, with an interest in how biological mechanisms, including gonadal hormone disruption and inflammatory signaling pathways, mediate these relationships. She holds an MD from Weill Cornell Medical College, completed psychiatry residency at Harvard Longwood, and fellowship in Behavioral Neurology and Neuropsychiatry at Brigham and Women’s Hospital’s Center for Brain/Mind Medicine.
