Biography
Jeffrey Strawn, MD, current research involves the identification of risk factors for pediatric anxiety disorders as well as the pathophysiology and psychopharmacology of these conditions. He uses functional neuroimaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy to study the neurophysiology of pediatric generalized anxiety disorder and of the neurophysiologic effects of co-morbid anxiety on the neurobiology of other psychiatric conditions in children and adolescents. Additionally, Dr. Strawn is actively involved in clinical trials of youth with mood and anxiety disorders.
Dr. Strawn has authored more than 50 peer-reviewed publications and is a member of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, the Anxiety Disorders Association of America and has been elected to Alpha Omega Alpha. Additionally, he is the recipient of numerous awards for teaching and research.
