Letter from the Chair

There is perhaps no branch of medicine more impatient for progress than pediatrics – because for children, every moment is an eternity. Although we can offer children so much more than ever before, the future holds even greater promise. Harnessing the power of research to improve the lives of children is our goal.

We offer an extraordinary faculty of expert, compassionate physicians and scientists, and we are recruiting more great leaders from around the world. We have a track record of excellence in research. We are building new programs, strengthening existing ones and attracting national attention in areas from pediatric cardiology to neonatology, from hematology/oncology to child development, and from pulmonary medicine to child health research.

Whether you are referring a patient for excellent care, seeking training at a top institution with one of the most diverse patient populations in the country, looking for advanced continuing education courses, or hoping to join a faculty that is forward-thinking and compassionate, we are confident you will be satisfied with your relationship with our department. Together, we can make miracles happen for children.
