PEDIATRIC SURGERY
Research Activities
Activities involve aspects
of fetal wound healing and repair, the
area of growth and inhibitory factors
for pediatric solid tumors and the
field of international health care
for children. The division has an
active ECMO ( Extracorporeal Membrane
Oxygenation) program in the neonatal
age range with expansion into the pediatric
population expected.
Templeton Lectureship
The Division of
Pediatric Surgery sponsors an endowed
Templeton Lectureship in Pediatric
Surgery and Trauma on a yearly basis.
It is expected that residents completing
requisite rotations through the Division
of Pediatric Surgery at the JAR and SAR
levels will be knowledgeable and capable
of handling a wide variety of surgical
maladies peculiar to children, while
refining their operative skills and
technique in this demanding surgical
arena.
Faculty
in this division have successfully sponsored
the fellowship training of a number of
outstanding Pediatric Surgeons throughout
the years and are committed to the educational
needs of residents on this service and
overall development of the resident’s
full potential.
