The university of Bristol in 2018 reported that up to 4 million people in the UK may have Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). In addition its believed that up to a quarter of care experienced young people may have FASD. We know FASD can have a profound impact on children and adults and its clear that research is essential to improve our understanding of what can help

Currently one area of research is linked to a herbal supplement called Choline. Dr Jeffrey Wozniak Ph.D and his team at the University of Minnesota are evaluating Choline and its potential to improve function skills in people who have FASD.

Dr Wozniak will share information about this research during our one hour lunchtime “Brainfood webinar”

Dr Wozniak received his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at Kent State University in 1997, internship at the University of Minnesota in 1997, and a post-doctoral fellowship in Pediatric Neuropsychology at the University of Minnesota in 1999.
