Research And Education

 

At Stony Brook Children's, all of our pediatric departments are engaged in the search for new and better ways of diagnosing and treating disease, as well as a greater understanding of disease causes and mechanisms. Our team has vast experience in pediatric cardiology clinical research and has contributed significantly to the diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart disease. Articles published include:
