Vision
We imagine a world where every child can live the healthiest life possible.
Mission
The Rutgers New Jersey Kids Study will use the power of research to understand how things in our environment shape child health starting in pregnancy and beyond.
We will take what we learn from the study to advance the practice of medicine and to advocate for policy change so that every child can have a healthy start in life.
Values
Our core values of compassion, respect and transparency guide everything that we do in the study.
The New Jersey Kids Study will use the power of science to answer big questions about child health and development.
How can allergies, asthma, celiac disease and diabetes be prevented in childhood?
Are there things in our environment
that impact brain health in childhood?
During pregnancy, are there things in the environment that cause disease later in childhood?
