ACE RESEARCH STUDIES(A selection of studies and articles on ACEs publicly available)American Academy of Pediatrics. The past few years have brought a dramatic improvement in our understanding of how a healthy brain develops and the effect, positive or negative, that a child’s environment has on that process. Several systems—social/behavioral, neuroendocrine, and even genetic—are all influenced by early experiences and interact with each other as a child grows and develops. The ability of an individual to successfully overcome negative experiences from trauma depends on many factors related to the complex interaction between these systems. Several key observations have emerged from recent research.The brain is not structurally complete at birth.Structural development is guided by environmental cuesEffective stimulation requires interaction with other people. Research. Adverse childhood experiences and trauma informed care: the future of health care. Current developments on the implementation of trauma informed care (TIC) in a variety of service systems call for the surveillance of trauma, resiliency, functional capacity, and health impact of ACEs. Despite such efforts in adult medical care, early identification of childhood trauma in children still remains a significant public health need. This article reviews childhood adversity and traumatic toxic stress, presents epidemiologic data on the prevalence of ACEs and their physical and mental health impacts, and discusses intervention modalities for prevention. on the Developing Child. Harvard University. Recent advances in the science of brain development offer us an unprecedented opportunity to solve some of society’s most challenging problems, from widening disparities in school achievement and economic productivity to costly health problems across the lifespan. Understanding how the experiences children have starting at birth, even prenatally, affect lifelong outcomes—combined with new knowledge about the core capabilities adults need to thrive as parents and in the workplace—provides a strong foundation upon which policymakers and civic leaders can design a shared and more effective agenda. on the Developing Child.
