Summary

  • I am a neonatologist and principal investigator in the Center for Perinatal Research within The Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital and an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at The Ohio State University. My ultimate goal is to improve outcomes important to neonatal patients and their families through research that leads directly to improvements in neonatal clinical care. My patient-centered research program focuses on comparative effectiveness research to determine which treatments work best for neonatal patients given specific clinical circumstances and patient characteristics.

    My two major research projects focus on 1) medication and interventional (catheter-based or surgical) closure of the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and 2) diuretic and inhaled corticosteroid treatment for chronic lung disease of infancy (bronchopulmonary dysplasia [BPD]).
