The Dadstudy

This project is being conducted by the Healthy Hearts Lab at the University of Calgary.

This study is based out of the University of Calgary's Healthy Hearts Lab. It aims to investigate prenatal factors associated with postpartum depression in expecting fathers. Postpartum depression occurs in 8-10% of new fathers and as such is an important area of investigation. By investigating early predictors and protector factors for postpartum depression, we hope to inform prevention and intervention strategies to protect negative outcomes for the whole family.

If you are an expecting father and interested in participating in the online study, please email Emily Cameron (PhD Candidate) at fatherstudy@ucalgary. ca.
