Slaughter Lab
The Slaughter Lab aims to improve outcomes important to neonatal patients and their families through large patient-focused cohort investigations and randomized trials. The patient-centered research program focuses on neonatal pharmacoepidemiology and comparative effectiveness research to determine which treatments work best for neonatal patients given specific clinical circumstances and patient characteristics.
