Clinical Focus- Pediatric Endocrinology
Research InterestThe overall goal of our research is to understand on both a molecular and systemic level how hormones regulate stem cell fate decisions and the role these pathways play in both physiology and disease. We use molecular biology and in vivo models to elucidate mechanisms of regulating cell fate determination by the endocrine system. Understanding these processes has profound and broad implications for both science and health.

Clinical Focus- Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics
- General Pediatrics
Research InterestLanguage allows people to participate fully in the human social experience. My research centers on language development in children with disorders that put language learning at risk, including children with chronic ear infections, early focal neural injuries, intellectual disability, autism, and prematurity. In addition to describing behavioral outcomes, my research uses diffusion tensor imaging to describe brain structure and functional magnetic resonance to evaluate brain function.

- Pediatric Critical Care Medicine
Research Interest1) Collaborative efforts with Dale Umetsu and Dave Lewis in evaluating alveolar macrophage response to antigen. We try to examine cytokine activation and inhibition. I perform bronchoalveolar lavage in these patients in order to obtain alveolar macrophages which we culture, stimulate and study. 2) Evaluate outcomes for patients admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit from the EMS services for trauma and other life-threatening events.
