About the Job Under moderate supervision from study PI or other research study management staff, this role provides substantial coordination level support for all clinical research activities within the scope of clinical research protocols. The Lynch Lab employs cutting-edge biomedical optical tools to better understand risk for neurologic injury in children with cardiac diseases. Our innovative approach revolves around noninvasive techniques for measuring cerebral oxygen delivery and utilization, ushering in a new era of neuromonitoring and improved neurologic outcomes. Our research covers a wide range of areas, from studying the vulnerable period after birth when infants with critical congenital heart disease are awaiting their life-saving procedures to improving neurologic outcomes during neonatal cardiac surgeries. We're also investigating the neurologic impact of procedures like device closure of patent ductus arteriosus in premature babies, monitoring intracranial pressure in patients with Glenn physiology, and measuring tissue water content in patients with lymphatic abnormalities. Our interdisciplinary approach sets our lab apart. Dr. Lynch's unique background in both physics and pediatric cardiac anesthesia brings together the worlds of science and medicine. Through close collaboration with other labs in the CHOP Biomedical Optics Group and researchers at the University of Pennsylvania, we combine cutting-edge technology with clinical experience to find practical solutions for better neuromonitoring and improved neurologic outcomes in children with heart conditions. Join us in our quest to make a real impact in pediatric cardiac care, one optical innovation at a time.
