Research

Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh has been at the forefront of pediatric heart and lung transplant research. Its research programs allow researchers and clinicians to work side-by-side to study relevant cardiovascular- and transplant-related problems in children. The goal is not only to increase the over-all body of knowledge about heart disease and transplantation in children, but also to discover methods to enhance success of the procedures.
