What excites you most about your research program or field?
I am passionate about my research program because it gives me the opportunity to work with pediatric patients to better manage pain during painful medical procedures, thereby helping to prevent the development of chronic pain in this population. Furthermore, my research program allows me to quickly translate my research findings into clinical practice, thereby improving clinical practices and the quality of care received by pediatric patients. It is truly a privilege.
