Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Developmental psychology
  • Psychiatry

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Prenatal stress, Developmental psychology, Hydrocortisone, Anxiety and Offspring. In her work, Child Behavior Checklist and Toddler is strongly intertwined with Temperament, which is a subfield of Prenatal stress. Her Developmental psychology study frequently links to related topics such as Stressor.

Her Hydrocortisone research includes themes of Pediatrics and Glucocorticoid. Her studies deal with areas such as Child and adolescent psychiatry and Affect as well as Anxiety. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Inflammation, Immunology, Basal and Cohort.

Her most cited work include:

  • Physiological stress reactivity in human pregnancy—a review (300 citations)
  • Maternal prenatal stress is associated with the infant intestinal microbiota (228 citations)
  • Prenatal stress and children's cortisol reaction to the first day of school. (194 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Carolina de Weerth spends much of her time researching Developmental psychology, Anxiety, Clinical psychology, Stressor and Internal medicine. Her study in the field of Middle childhood is also linked to topics like Longitudinal study. Her Anxiety study combines topics in areas such as Affect, Prenatal stress, Obstetrics, Pediatrics and Depression.

Prenatal stress is a subfield of Offspring that Carolina de Weerth investigates. Her work investigates the relationship between Clinical psychology and topics such as Mental health that intersect with problems in Child development. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Internal medicine, Endocrinology are connected with Physiology and Young infants and other disciplines.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (36.08%)
  • Anxiety (20.62%)
  • Clinical psychology (19.59%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Clinical psychology (19.59%)
  • Anxiety (20.62%)
  • Mental health (8.25%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Carolina de Weerth mostly deals with Clinical psychology, Anxiety, Mental health, Breastfeeding and Distress. Her research in Clinical psychology focuses on subjects like Heart disease, which are connected to Erikson's stages of psychosocial development. Her Anxiety study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Offspring, Gestation, Obstetrics, Feeling and Depression.

Her study looks at the relationship between Breastfeeding and fields such as Gut flora, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. Her study on Distress also encompasses disciplines like

  • Psychosocial which is related to area like Acquired immune system, Immune system, Hydrocortisone and Full Term,
  • Lactation and Delivery mode most often made with reference to Physiology. Carolina de Weerth interconnects Prenatal stress, Prenatal care and Breast feeding in the investigation of issues within Developmental psychology.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The PedBE clock accurately estimates DNA methylation age in pediatric buccal cells. (28 citations)
  • The effect of prebiotic fortified infant formulas on microbiota composition and dynamics in early life. (28 citations)
  • Human Milk Microbiome and Maternal Postnatal Psychosocial Distress. (17 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Cognition

Carolina de Weerth mainly investigates Distress, Psychosocial, Physiology, Clinical psychology and Gut flora. Carolina de Weerth has researched Distress in several fields, including Acquired immune system, Immune system, Anxiety, Hydrocortisone and Full Term. Her Psychosocial research incorporates elements of Intervention, Stressor and Heart disease.

Clinical psychology is integrated with Stress and Quality of life in her study. Her work in Gut flora covers topics such as Delivery mode which are related to areas like Feces. The Feces study combines topics in areas such as Microbiota composition, Food science, Prebiotic and Breast feeding.
