Critical Care
With five faculty funded by the National Institutes of Health, as well as several other faculty funded with foundation grant support, our research agenda includes development of a vaccine against bacteria that is a leading cause of death in children, elucidating the molecular mechanisms of pulmonary hypertension, identifying the genes that predispose healthy infants to develop respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis, investigating novel measures of lung volume and examining ethical concerns in the pediatric intensive care unit.
