AboutAbout the lab
Learning about children's growth and genetics together
The Developmental Pediatrics Lab conducts research related to children's growth and genetics.
Physical and mental growth through the newborn period, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood is the most dynamic change in a human life, and the lab says much about it is still not understood.
From undergraduate to graduate level, the lab is in charge of courses, practicums, and research on children and genetics, including clinical pediatrics, child health, school health, and neonatal physiology and pathophysiology.
The lab's page says, “Let's learn about children and genetics, and open up new knowledge together.”
