- The Pediatric Research Center is home to leading scientists who seek to understand the causes of birth defects, which affect 25% of newborns and children, inflicting significant morbidity and are a leading cause of death in this group.
- The long-term goal of the Pediatric Research Center investigators is to uncover the cause(s) of birth defects to develop both prevention strategies and treatments to cure sick children, since not all birth defects can be prevented.
