Dr. Rice’s research interests are in the field of environmental science and premature lung disease. She is the recipient of an NIH K23 Mentored Patient-Oriented Research Career Development award to study the effects of indoor air pollution on respiratory outcomes in preterm infants.
Dr. Lingappan, a neonatologist at CHOP, studies sex-specific differences in organ systems that could mediate the sex-specific responses of preterm infants.
This week’s In the News highlights PolicyLab’s second annual Impact Report, an FDA approval based on CHOP research, and a link between daycare and chronic lung disease effects in premature infants.
Knowing the causative genes for osteoporosis may later open the door to more effective treatments. Research by Struan Grant, PhD, and Andrew Wells, PhD.
Automated programs can identify which sick infants in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) have sepsis hours before clinicians recognize the life-threatening condition. A team of data researchers and physician-scientists tested machine-learning models in a NICU population, drawing only on routinely collected data available in electronic health records (EHRs).
