Research & Innovations
Superb care of the fetal and pediatric patient and family requires not only productive clinical interaction of disparate clinical disciplines, but successful collaboration of diverse biological and physical science groups in the research laboratory. In our paradigm of surgical care, the problems of our small patients also become the motivation for investigators in the basic sciences to assist in the understanding of disease mechanism and develop new therapies to cure, ameliorate, or prevent previously untreatable birth defects.
