| Personal Statement | |
| Dr Flori joined the PICU faculty at Children's Oakland in 1998. Since her arrival to the division, she has augmented the clinical research focus in the PICU and in the fellowship program. There are currently 9 clinical research studies underway in the PICU with major foci in sepsis, acute lung injury (ALI) and trauma. Dr. Flori's primary research interest is in ALI. She has received NIH funding to study the epidemiology and clinical risk factors associated with short and long term functional outcomes of pediatric ALI. In collaboration with the laboratory and mentorship of Dr. Michael Matthay in the Cardiovascular Research Institute at UCSF, she has completed some of the first investigations describing the pathophysiology of ALI in pediatric patients. |
