个人简介
Dr. Ladd-Acosta is Assistant Professor of Epidemiology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and holds a joint appointment in the Department of Mental Health. She also serves as Associate Director for genomics at the Wendy Klag Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities and Associate Director for epigenomic analysis at the Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes, Data Analysis Center (ECHO-DAC). She leverages her interdisciplinary expertise across wet lab genomics/epigenomics and epidemiology to develop and apply new molecular tools to advance the next generation of epidemiology studies and improve health outcomes. Dr. Ladd-Acosta is recognized for her contributions to the fields of epigenetic epidemiology, autism spectrum disorder, and environmental epigenomics. Her research findings have been recognized as 2 of the top 20 scientific advances in the field of autism research by the Interagency Autism Coordinating Council (IACC) in 2017 and she also received a 2016 Environmental Research paper of the year award. She currently leads several federally funded research projects to investigate: (a) epigenomic mechanisms in social environmental stress effects on health outcomes, and their contribution to health disparities, (b) genetic, environmental, and epigenetic risk factors for neuropsychiatric disorders, including their interplay, and (c) the development of epigenetic biomarkers of exposure and disease. In addition to her research goals, Dr. Ladd-Acosta is dedicated to training the next generation of researchers through mentorship and classroom activities. This is evidenced by her mentees leading successful research-based careers in both the private industry and academic settings, her courses consistently receiving outstanding ratings, and receipt of the 2021 Advising, Mentoring & Teaching Recognition Award (AMTRA) given by the Johns Hopkins Student Association for outstanding mentoring and teaching service. She currently serves as Preceptor for several training programs including the Maryland Genetics, Epidemiology and Medicine (MD-GEM), Cancer T32, and Psychiatric Epidemiology T32 (PET) training programs and co-mentors or advises junior faculty on their mentored awards.
