Dr Monique’s aim is to make a difference in society by working towards the prevention of child mental health problems.
Her work at the Telethon Institute for Child Health Research examines the events during pregnancy that determine whether a child will develop a mental health problem and how this happens. Dr Monique has received numerous awards and has authored more than 30 publications in the maternal and child mental health field. Together with her team, she believes we can intervene early to give every child a healthy start to life.
