Thank You and Farewell to Our Research Trainees

As this academic period comes to a close, we would like to extend our sincere thanks and best wishes to several exceptional trainees who have contributed to our neonatal resuscitation research program. We are proud to recognize their hard work, dedication, and successful completion of their respective programs.

Grace Leaman – PMCOL 401 Student

Grace completed her research training through PMCOL 401, an independent pharmacology research course offering hands-on experience in experimental design, data analysis, literature review, and scientific communication.

Her project examined alternative approaches to vasopressin administration during neonatal resuscitation, contributing to ongoing efforts to improve cardiovascular support for newborns requiring intensive care at birth. Grace successfully completed and graduated from PMCOL 401, and we thank her for her thoughtful and rigorous contributions.

Grace will be back in 2026 for her PMCOL 402 project to further examine alternative approaches to vasopressin administration during neonatal resuscitation,

Suhasini Dube – PMCOL 401 Student

Suhasini also successfully completed PMCOL 401, gaining independent, faculty-supervised research experience with a strong emphasis on scientific communication and translational impact.

Her project focused on alternative approaches to epinephrine administration during neonatal resuscitation, addressing important questions related to optimizing delivery of this life-saving medication for critically ill newborns. Suhasini graduated successfully from PMCOL 401, and we commend her commitment and analytical approach.

Rachel Gibbs – MD-STIR Candidate

We would also like to acknowledge Rachel Gibbs, who successfully completed her MD-STIR research training.

Rachel’s project compared volume-targeted positive pressure ventilation with pressure-controlled positive pressure ventilation in the delivery room, contributing to a critical area of neonatal resuscitation research focused on optimizing ventilation strategies at birth. She has now successfully graduated from the MD-STIR program, and we congratulate her on this important achievement.

Research Interns

We extend our sincere thanks to our research interns:

• Raza Hyderi

• Shrieya Praveen

• Priscilla Oladele

Each intern brought enthusiasm, dedication, and valuable support to our research activities. Their contributions were instrumental in advancing our work and strengthening our research environment.

We are grateful to have worked with all of these trainees and wish them continued success in their future academic, clinical, and research endeavors.
