Durham, NC -- NARSAD, the world's leading charity dedicated to funding research on mental illness, has awarded its Ruane Prize for Outstanding Achievement in Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Research to Duke researchers E. Jane Costello and Dr. Adrian C. Angold for their discoveries that psychiatric
disorders can begin as early as age two, many years younger than previously believed.
The husband-and-wife team co-direct the Center for Developmental Epidemiology and teach in psychiatry and behavioral sciences in the medical school.
