Dr. Marshall S. Korenblum
WHAT
AT-RISK YOUTH:
THE
BRAIN DOES (AND DOESN’T) TELL US
The teenage brain is a work-in-progress, a moving target. What does clinical experience and research tell us about
how and why young people become depressed, novelty-seeking, and emotionally dysregulated? This full day
presentation will elucidate the factors contributing to risky behaviour, clinical depression, and personality disorder
from an inter-personal neuro-biological and attachment perspective. Childhood antecedents will be described (e.g,
temperament), and implications for school personnel in terms of how to change school culture to optimize young
people's mental health will be discussed.
Dr. Marshall Korenblum is Psychiatrist-in-Chief at the Hincks-Dellcrest Centre for Children and Families in
Toronto, and Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry, University of Toronto. He has been practising
child psychiatry for over 25 years. Dr. Korenblum was Director of Postgraduate Education for the Division of Child
Psychiatry at the University of Toronto for over 10 years, and Chairman of the Education Committee of the
Canadian Academy of Child Psychiatry for 2 years. He consults to a number of children's mental health centres,
and is on staff at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, Hospital for Sick Children, and the Center for Addiction
and Mental Health. Dr. Korenblum has a special interest in mood disorder in adolescence, and has published widely
in the area of personality development in adolescence. He is an award-winning teacher, and a staunch advocate of
public education.
