OverviewAI-generated summary
Jessica L. Coker's research focuses on maternal health, particularly during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Her work investigates the use of medication-assisted treatment, such as buprenorphine, for opioid use disorder in pregnant individuals, examining factors associated with treatment adherence and postpartum retention. Coker also studies maternal mental health, including anxiety and depression, and their potential impacts on newborn brain development. She has developed and validated assessment tools for maternal postpartum depression and anxiety, utilizing patient-reported outcome measures. Her scholarship includes a systematic review of outcome measures for postpartum anxiety and an analysis of self-harm rating scales in postpartum women. Coker has published 32 papers, with an h-index of 10 and 349 citations, and collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
