Excited for our team led by Kori Flower @uncchildrens and myself @HopkinsKids to expand the only known successful child prevention of obesity intervention in primary care pediatrics (Greenlight Plus) nationwide with $3.5M from @PCORI. TY! @AmerAcadPeds hopkinsmedicine.org/news/art…
Thanks @JHU_BDPs! We were so excited to publish this randomized controlled trial in JAMA & excited the intervention prevented child obesity in those who needed it most. Thanks to my awesome research team across many institutions & @JAMA_current @PCORI @HopkinsKids @JHUNursing
A new study co-lead by BDP @ElianaPerrin shows that adding digital intervention to traditional in-clinic health counseling for parents about food and exercise prevents very young children from developing obesity.
