Scientists and physicians at the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix and our clinical affiliates are striving to advance medical research in child health because children have unique needs.
Their bodies are still developing, and it is important to create treatments specific to them. Children may respond to medical treatments differently than adults, and some diseases and conditions only affect children. This critically important work is spearheaded by leading investigators and clinical partners, who are striving to understand the mechanisms of disease, including biochemical, metabolic and genetic markers.
Interdisciplinary teams are working to extrapolate these findings to develop new methods to prevent, diagnose and treat complex conditions. They employ innovative approaches and state-of-the-art technologies to find the missing pieces and help pediatric patients with respiratory disorders, cerebral palsy, lung cancer, traumatic brain injury, neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders.
The driving force behind our research is to advance discovery, facilitate translation and accelerate clinical application – for the kids.
