Research Retreat
The 2023 Department of Pediatrics Research Retreat was held in-person on Monday, April 17 and Tuesday, April 18 at the Trent Semans Center for Health Education, Great Hall. This annual event offers the opportunity for all members of the department to engage in collaborative discussions and showcase current research.
The mission of this year’s retreat was to highlight the plethora of pediatric research being conducted in the department and the School of Medicine. The retreat featured presentations and discussions on community engaged research, specifically, bringing together local communities, health providers, community-based organizations, disease advocacy groups, as well as nonprofit and industry entities to drive transformative research efforts, directly impacting local and national communities. This approach was integral in helping communities overcome the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic, contributing to the deployment of large-scale national public health responses, vaccination efforts, and guidance around school safety.
