Dr. Marc Woodbury-Smith @ Queens University

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at Queen’s University and work clinically as a neurodevelopmental psychiatrist in the Developmental Disabilities Consultation Program (DDCP). I trained in Psychiatry in Cambridge, UK and at the Yale Child Study Center, USA and undertook training in genetic epidemiology and statistical genetics in Toronto (STAGE program). My research interests include the genetics of neurodevelopmental disorders and their endophenotypes. I have worked clinically with children and adults with intellectual disability and related neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) for many years. I also hold honorary posts including Associate Investigator at the Centre for Applied Genomics at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada and Visiting Fellow at the Biosciences Institute in Newcastle upon Tyne UK. I am an Associate Editor of the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders.
