Optimizing neonatal resuscitation in the delivery room

Birth is one of the greatest physiological challenges that we will ever experience and so it is not surprising that it is a period of high risk of death or permanent injury. Despite the risk, our understanding of how infants transition from fetal to newborn life is limited. My research is focused on improving our understanding of how infants make the transition to newborn life and reducing the risks for these most vulnerable of humans.
