Hello! Welcome to the DART Lab Website!
The main objectives of our lab are to improve the mental and physical wellbeing of children and adolescents suffering from chronic pain, mental health and substance use problems. We aim to understand how our pediatric patient's genetic vulnerabilites, psychological characteristics and behaviours interact with social and enviromental factors to shape trajectories of pediatric health and the effect of interventions. Our goal is to do that in a innovative and creative way, by taking our research and treatment out of the clinic and into our patient's daily lives.
