Pediatric Emergency Medicine Research

Our team of pediatric emergency medicine physician-scientists conducts a wide range of research studies focused on improving the health of ill and injured children. Our work is funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and other federal funding agencies, foundations and philanthropic sources, industry, and the Grainger Research Program in Pediatric Emergency Medicine. Our investigators are actively leading studies nationally and internationally through the Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network (PECARN), the Pediatric Emergency Medicine Collaborative Research Committee (PEMCRC) of the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the global consortium, Pediatric Emergency Research Networks (PERN). In addition, our team has a strong commitment to fostering the next generation of academic PEM physicians through research mentorship of undergraduate and medical students, residents, and fellows.
