Working together toward the best possible care
The pediatrics clinical group at University of Tsukuba Hospital provides medical care to children, conducts research, and trains young doctors.

The group provides advanced specialist care in hematology and oncology, immunology and collagen diseases, allergy, cardiology, neurology, endocrinology and metabolism, gastroenterology, neonatology, emergency medicine, genetics, and nephrology.
It has a pediatric emergency and critical care center, and also treats childhood cancer with proton beam therapy.
