About
Charlie Rioux is a leading researcher in perinatal mental health and environmental sensitivity, whose work illuminates how individual differences in susceptibility to environmental influences shape mental health during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Her major contributions include the design and implementation of the Experiences of Pregnancy Longitudinal Cohort Study, a groundbreaking investigation into phenotypic environmental sensitivity and its role in perinatal mental health outcomes. Rioux has pioneered innovative, cost-effective recruitment methodologies for pregnancy cohorts, demonstrating the effectiveness of social media advertising and videocalls—a critical advancement given the rising challenges of web robots and fraudulent participants in digital research. Her protocol paper has garnered 4 citations, while her 2025 study on recruitment strategies has already received 3 citations, underscoring the timely relevance of her methodological innovations. Rioux’s work not only advances theoretical understanding of how socio-environmental factors predict perinatal mental health but also provides practical tools for conducting rigorous, scalable research in this vulnerable population. Her findings have direct implications for improving screening, prevention, and intervention strategies for pregnant individuals and their children, making her a vital voice in contemporary developmental and clinical psychology.
