As part of the OMNI research group, he is developing a ground-breaking research program on modifiable perinatal exposures and their impact on children’s neurodevelopment.
Dr. Corsi has established an internationally recognized research program on substance use in pregnancy and its effects on mothers and infants. Thus far, he has achieved several high-impact publications in JAMA and Nature Medicine. Dr. Corsi and the OMNI team have received more than $1.5 million in CIHR funding and currently have a team grant on cannabis in pregnancy (Corsi PI).
