Message from our Executive Director
As the Executive Director of the Child Health Research Institute (CHRI), I am focused on building a foundation for our investigators to successfully grow research platforms, collaborate and secure extramural funding. We will disseminate the results of our efforts to the greater pediatric scientific community to improve the health of children through research innovation world-wide. Along with UNMC and Children's, our committed sponsors, CHRI is poised to provide every child an equal opportunity for a healthy life.
