The primary aim of the teaching program of the Department of Pediatrics is to stimulate interest in developmental biology — in particular, human growth and development — to provide students with a foundation sufficiently comprehensive to have an appreciation of clinical pediatric problems, regardless of their future career choices in medicine.
The major clinical and research facilities are in St. Louis Children's Hospital, and the newborn services are at the Women & Infants Center. St. Louis Children's Hospital is a facility with 300 beds that accepts patients through 21 years of age with all types of medical and surgical problems. Hospital admissions average 11,200 annually. Pediatric medical ambulatory activity, including subspecialty and emergency visits, averages about 152,000 visits per year. Nearly 4,000 infants are born annually at the Washington University Medical Center.

Using candidate gene sequencing, exome sequencing, whole genome sequencing, and computational prediction and filtering strategies for the discovery of deleterious variants in population-based cohorts, case-control cohorts, and trios of affected infant and parents, our laboratory focuses on discovering novel candidate genes associated with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome and understanding the contribution of genetic variation in candidate genes of the pulmonary surfactant metabolic pathway (including surfactant protein B, surfactant protein C, NKX2-1, and ABCA3) to the risk of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.

Our research team studies the epidemiology, microbial virulence mechanisms, and host defenses against community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) colonization, transmission and disease. We are investigating the transmission dynamics of CA-MRSA in households as well as interventions to interrupt the transmission of CA-MRSA and to prevent subsequent infections. Our lab also explores the microbial and host genomic determinants as well as the host immune response to staphylococcal toxins implicated in the pathogenesis of CA-MRSA in patients across the spectrum of disease states. Our goal is to develop novel approaches for the prevention of CA-MRSA infections.

Our focus is on the extracellular matrix in vascular development and disease. Specifically, we study the extracellular matrix proteins that make up the elastic fibers of blood vessels. Elastic fibers convey elasticity to blood vessels, allowing large arteries to store energy during systole and release it during diastole. Abnormalities in elastic fiber components lead to various complications, including hypertension, stiff vessels, and aneurysms. In the laboratory, we utilize mouse models to understand how abnormalities in these proteins lead to disease, which helps us not only to learn about the normal function of these proteins but also to identify potential novel therapeutic targets.

Work in our lab focuses on the interactions of pathogenic bacteria with their hosts. We aim to elucidate the modulation of host immune responses by pathogens and to determine the mechanisms by which these bacteria present specific virulence factors on their surfaces. Currently, we use cultured bladder epithelial cell models and murine models of cystitis to investigate the ability of uropathogenic Escherichia coli to modulate host innate and adaptive immune responses. In addition, we are studying the molecular mechanisms by which selected outer membrane proteins contribute to the virulence of uropathogenic E. coli. Our primary goal is to discover novel targets for interventions that will prevent and better treat bacterial infections of the urinary tract. Along these lines, we are leveraging recent discoveries in UTI pathogenesis to design nanoparticle-based therapies for the prevention of acute and recurrent UTI. We have also launched a new translational study of immune responses to UTI in male and female infants, paired with an innovative new mouse model of male UTI that permits first-ever studies of sex differences in these infections.

PEDS 8055 Antimicrobial Use, Resistance, and Stewardship (Clinical Elective)
In 2019, the CDC estimated that 2.6 million Americans develop an infection with an antimicrobial resistant (AMR) organism each year; of these individuals, nearly 44,000 will die from their infection. Worldwide, more than 250,000 children die annually at least in part from infections due to AMR organism. The primary driver of AMR is the use – and, more importantly, the misuse – of antibiotics. Approximately 20% of pediatric ambulatory and emergency department visits result in an antibiotic prescription, and between 35-70% of hospitalized children receive at least one dose of an antibiotic during their hospitalization. Of these antibiotics, more than 30% are thought to be prescribed inappropriately. Antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASPs) aim to combat AMR but ensuring the judicious use of antibiotics within healthcare systems. This elective rotation will be focused on educating students on the current state of domestic and global antibiotic resistance and the mechanisms by which healthcare systems are addressing the problem of AMR. Students will participate in the daily antimicrobial stewardship activities conducted by the St. Louis Children's Hospital ASP, attend weekly stewardship and clinical infectious diseases meetings, and review antimicrobial use data.

PEDS 8085 Newborn Critical Care (Clinical Elective)
This elective will take place in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at St. Louis Children’s Hospital and will provide valuable exposure to neonatal care for future pediatric providers. Students will join one of the acute care NICU teams consisting of an attending, fellow, resident, nurse practitioners, dietician, pharmacist, and discharge coordinator. They will follow 3-5 patients under the direct supervision of their resident, fellow, and attending, participating in formulation of diagnostic and treatment plans, coordination of care, and communication with families. Throughout the rotation, students will broaden their understanding of pathophysiology as it relates to the transition from fetal to neonatal life, and in common neonatal disease processes. There will be emphasis on improving clinical problem-solving skills, communication within the team, as well as with ancillary staff and families.

PEDS 8095 Pediatric Nephrology (Clinical Elective)
This course is designed to provide the student with a broad exposure to all aspects of pediatric kidney disease and an opportunity to explore a desired aspect of the field in-depth. The student will be an integral part of the Nephrology team and as such will see both inpatients through our consult service and outpatients in various clinics at St. Louis Children's Hospital (general nephrology, dialysis, transplant, other specialized clinics). Discussions and rounds with the attending staff and fellows emphasize the relationship between clinical problems and the pathophysiology of the underlying disease. These informal teaching sessions are supplemented by more formal didactic sessions including nephrology attending rounds, a weekly division-wide educational conference, renal research rounds and Renal Grand Rounds, which are conducted weekly in conjunction with the Division of Nephrology at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. Kidney biopsy material is reviewed with the renal pathologists. Attendance at the weekly pediatric grand rounds and pediatric case conferences is encouraged. Opportunities in clinical and translational research projects will be discussed with interested students.
