Pediatric Fellows Research Day

On May 26, 2021, Le Bonheur, the CFRI and the UTHSC Pediatric Fellowship Office hosted the inaugural Pediatric Fellows Research Day on Zoom. This virtual event was kicked off with a keynote speech delivered by Dennis Black, MD, professor of Pediatrics and Physiology at UTHSC, scientific director of CFRI, and vice-president for Research at Le Bonheur.

Eight pediatric fellows across multiple pediatric subspecialties, including cardiology, endocrinology, neonatal-perinatal medicine, nephrology, pulmonology and surgery, presented their fellowship research projects. The topics ranged from risk factors of acute kidney injury in children with COVID-19 to a new scoring system for Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis. All talks are available online here.
