Research Partners

The NYU Child Study Center has created partnersghips with three outstanding research facilities to further its mission to provide science-based treatments and prevention for children and teens with psychiatric and learning disorders.

Bellevue Hospital Center

Bellevue Hospital Center is America's oldest public hospital, the flagship of
NYC's Health and Hospital Corporation, and the largest teaching affiliate of
the NYU School of Medicine. It boasts one of the nation's largest arrays of
mental health programs, providing inpatient, outpatient, consultation-liaison
and emergency services to thousands of children and adolescents with
psychiatric disorders.

Historically, Bellevue has been a pioneer in training psychiatrists and integrating science into effective treatments. It continues that tradition as a primary site for training NYU Child Study Center child and adolescent psychiatry residents and child psychologists.

Nathan Kline Institute

The Nathan S. Kline Institute for Psychiatric Research (NKI) is one of only two New York State-funded research institutions and is internationally known for its pioneering contributions to psychiatric research. Child Study Center Director Harold S. Koplewicz, M.D., was appointed to serve as its Executive Director in May 2006 by Governor Pataki and the Commissioner of the New York State Office of Mental Health.

The Child Study Center is integrating its superlative research programs with NKI's ongoing programs, which address such devastating disorders as schizophrenia, major mood disorders, Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Together, we will examine the epidemiology and treatment of some of the most severe psychiatric
disorders over the entire human lifespan.

NKI researchers, some of whom are NYU faculty members, also provide outstanding research training to the next generation of child and adolescent psychiatrists in our psychiatry residency program.

Rockland Children's Psychiatric Center

Rockland Children's Psychiatric Center (RCPC) is a psychiatric hospital, operated by the New York State Office of Mental Health, exclusively serving children and adolescents. It is a teaching affiliate of the NYU School of Medicine, providing a fertile training ground for the Child Study Center's advanced training program.

Serving children from the Hudson Valley Region, RCPC has a wide variety of inpatient and outpatient services, including school-based aftercare programs, day treatment programs, and clinics. Outpatient programs are fully integrated with the inpatient services, enabling RCPC to provide a full continuum of care to the children it serves.
