"Growing Up Digital: What Parents Need to Know About Smartphones and Child Development" with Dr. Ran Barzilay, MD, PhD Dr. Ran Barzilay, MD, PhD, is an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania and an attending child and adolescent psychiatrist at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Dr. Barzilay completed his medical training and his PhD at Tel Aviv University and his training in child adolescent psychiatry at the Geha Mental Health Center in Israel. He joined CHOP and Penn in 2017 and established his research lab at the Lifespan Brain Institute of CHOP and Penn Medicine in 2020. His research examines factors shaping health and development in youth exposed to stress, focusing on risk and resilience mechanisms underlying variability in physical and mental health trajectories. Leveraging multimodal data including clinical, biological, and environmental measures, he seeks to uncover pathways influencing pediatric health outcomes. Dr. Barzilay's research focuses on modeling the exposome, including environmental and lifestyle factors, alongside the digital exposome, which encompasses online and technology-related exposures. This integrated framework enables a comprehensive understanding of how technology use influences child health outcomes.Zoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84478679990
