Sarah A. Keim studies maternal and child health, focusing on infant feeding and nutrition (including breastfeeding, infant formula, and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation), preterm birth outcomes, and how prenatal and early-life environmental, dietary, and psychosocial exposures shape children's growth, behavior, and neurodevelopment. Much of this work draws on large multi-site cohort studies such as the ECHO (Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes) Program. This research is intended to inform clinical and public health guidance around pregnancy, infant nutrition, and early childhood development rather than laboratory-based basic science.
