I am involved in perioperative research that aims to improve evidence-based medicine in pediatric anesthesia. My previous work includes writing Association of Paediatric Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland consensus statement on one-hour clear fasting time for children undergoing elective surgery. This has been adopted internationally. I am a peer reviewer of the British Journal of Anaesthesia. I have also been the principal investigator on projects in medical education and clinical anesthesia.

The truth about concussion in children and youth: 'It's a traumatic brain injury'
Concussions are brain injuries that can have serious effects — especially in children, whose brains are still developing. Dr. Shelina Babul, creator of the Concussion Awareness Training Tool (CATT), explains why early recognition and proper care are essential — allowing kids to recover safely and get back to life, school, and doing what they love.
