Portable, Stress Biology Monitoring for Children

Decades of research has linked exposure to childhood adversity to a range of long-term negative outcomes. Early childhood stress in particular can have serious long-term effects including for achievement, depression, addiction, risk-taking and suicidality.

Today, there are no accessible, cost-effective, tools available that can readily be deployed to monitor stress system development - for example in the context of home visitation or child wellness visits.
