We provide individualized career development through mentoring, career development committees, and participation in and leadership of quality improvement, education, and research efforts. We focus on team science and encourage collaboration. Our division averages more than 100 peer-reviewed publications per year with most faculty publishing a peer-reviewed paper each year. Cincinnati Children’s has a number of internal grant mechanisms, and the division receives over $2.9M in direct federal grant support per year.
