Biography

I am a Pediatric Gastroenterologist working at Nemours Children's Hospital for the last 24 years. The clinical experience in treating a variety of gastrointestinal conditions has instilled in me the importance of combining clinical work with a research agenda. I have strong interest in clinical and translational research in pediatric inflammatory disease. I am also interested in pediatric obesity translational research.
