Pneumonia and malaria: Innovations tackle leading threats to children under five

Globally, pneumonia and malaria are among the leading causes of death for children under five, due in part to health-care resource gaps in low- and middle-income countries. New BCCHR investigator and pediatric infectious diseases expert Dr. Michael T. Hawkes is developing diagnostic and treatment tools to address these shortages.

Pediatric Sepsis Data Challenge invites researchers to help develop a model to save lives

To help prevent more children from dying of sepsis, the Institute for Global Health is inviting researchers to help design an open-source algorithm that predicts in-hospital mortality in low- and middle-income countries.

New research tools can shed light on an understudied organ essential to our lives

The placenta is essential to a healthy start in life. Despite its importance, little is known about it, including why it might not develop properly, which can lead to long-term health issues. Dr. Alexander Beristain’s lab is investigating two state-of-the-art stem cell-based tools that model a human placenta to find answers that can positively impact children’s health.
