My research program is focused on several basic and translational projects designed to establish how nutritional support, enteral versus parenteral, effects gut and liver function and susceptibility to disease in early development. We have used the neonatal piglet to established unique models of parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) to address clinically-relevant problems in pediatric gastroenterology.
