    My primary research interest is in pulmonary hypertension. Our center is a member of national and international registries that seek to understand more about pediatric pulmonary hypertension. We participate in industry-sponsored clinical trials of new pulmonary hypertension medications. I have an investigator-initiated study looking at the use of inhaled iloprost in children in the critical care units.
