In 2018, Iain was awarded the internationally competitive Child Foundation Fellowship following on from his 2017 award of the World Psychiatry Association Fellowship; both awards represented his leadership in child and adolescent mental health.

His clinical research portfolio includes OCD, behavioural neuroscience, neuroimaging, and child and adolescent mental health services.

He established (2022) and leads the Kids Research Mental Health initiative and the NSW-wide paediatric OCD clinical research translation service (OCD BOUNCE, 2021) in the Sydney Children’s Hospital Network as part of a national collaboration.

I have appeared on Sydney radio. I regularly speak at local and national meetings in addition to the public domain. I co-founded Continuing Professional Development programs in both the Sydney Children’s Hospital Network and Dubbo Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service.
