Overview

Abraham Reichenberg is affiliated with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in the United States. Their research spans multiple disciplines with a strong focus on medicine and neuroscience. Within these fields, their work prominently covers cognitive neuroscience, psychiatry and mental health, clinical psychology, genetics, and public health.

The scientist's research topics include autism spectrum disorder, functional brain connectivity, schizophrenia research and treatment, maternal mental health during pregnancy and postpartum, child nutrition and feeding issues, family and disability support, and adolescent and pediatric healthcare.

Reichenberg has contributed to a variety of publication venues, predominantly in the following journals:

  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Schizophrenia Research
  • Biological Psychiatry
  • Psychological Medicine
  • European Psychiatry

Their recent papers emphasize various aspects of psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders as well as public mental health. These include:

  • Rare coding variation provides insight into the genetic architecture and phenotypic context of autism (2022, Nature Genetics)
  • Mental health before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in two longitudinal UK population cohorts (2020, The British Journal of Psychiatry)
  • Risk and protective factors for mental disorders beyond genetics: an evidence-based atlas (2021, World Psychiatry)
  • Comorbidities in autism spectrum disorder and their etiologies (2023, Translational Psychiatry)
  • Mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic in two longitudinal UK population cohorts (2020, bioRxiv [Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory])

Their collaborative work often involves frequent co-authors such as Sven Sandin, Stephen Z. Levine, Joseph D. Buxbaum, Magdalena Janecka, and Arad Kodesh, reflecting a broad network of researchers within psychiatry and neuroscience.
