As clinicians, we provide multidisciplinary care to patients with developmental brain injury – the predominant populations being children born very preterm, those with congenital heart disease, and those who have acquired neurological injury. We bring our bedside experience to the bench; our clinical expertise directly informs our goal of understanding neonatal brain injury and its long-term consequences.

Our current research is focused on the acute and long-term metabolic dysregulation following developmental brain injury. We use both animal models and biochemical techniques to answer these questions.
