I specialize in treating children with upper and lower airway disease and general ENT disorders. I also specialize in pediatric sleep medicine—treating children with an array of complex sleep problems, especially those with circadian disorders. I have a lab where we study disease mechanisms in obstructive sleep apnea. I collaborate with John Hogenesch, translating our findings in the lab, and from the field of circadian biology, for human health and disease. Our work is focused on identifying new management strategies and targeted therapies based on realignment of the internal clock.
