Investigators from 3 cohorts with the Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program will highlight research findings from their cohort and collaborations across multiple ECHO cohorts. The 3 cohorts that will be highlighted are Developmental Impact of NICU Exposures (DINE), Neonatal Neurobehavior and Outcomes in Very Preterm Infants (NOVI); and Extremely Low Gestational Age Newborn (ELGAN). These studies enrolled exclusively very preterm neonates around the time of birth. Prior to initiation of the ECHO Program, these 3 cohorts collected a rich set of data on pre-, peri-, and post-natal exposures, as well as child health outcomes. When coupled with new data that these cohorts are collecting using the ECHO-wide data collection protocol, data from “preterm infant” cohorts provides a rich and unique dataset to address critical and impactful research questions regarding children born preterm.
