The Department of Pediatrics, chaired by Jordan Orange MD, PhD, consists of 13 pediatric subspecialty divisions. Each division is under the direction of a chief, who guides the mission of the enterprise. The goals of each division are to provide compassionate, high-quality patient care; to perform clinical, translational, and/or laboratory-based research that will advance our understanding of diseases that affect children and adolescents; and to educate medical students, residents, and fellows to become the leaders of the next generation of physicians and scientists.
