Knight Biobehavioral Oncology Lab
The Knight Biobehavioral Oncology Lab aims to investigate biological risk and interventions – both pharmacologic and behavioral – for social health disparities in cancer, specifically among hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) and cellular therapy recipients.
The Periscope Project
The Periscope Project was created to fill the critical gap between statewide depression screenings initiatives and lack of perinatal psychiatric treatment services in Wisconsin. Health care providers often discontinue or delay initiation of antidepressant medication when pregnancy or breastfeeding is identified due to fears about medication safety. By offering resources to assist health care providers in treating their pregnant and postpartum patients, The Periscope Project reduces health disparities and increases healthy birth outcomes.
Wisconsin Child Psychiatry Consultation Program (CPCP)
The Child Psychiatry Consultation Program started in 2012 with the generous philanthropic support though the Charles E. Kubly Foundation. The goal of the CPCP is to improve mental health care for children in state of Wisconsin. Child Psychiatrists work with primary care physicians to treat mental health care needs sooner, in patients’ medical homes, and support them through education and consultation. Due to the success of the pilot program, the State of Wisconsin passed legislation to fund additional expansion for coverage of the rural Northern Region of the state.
