Georgia Tech Pediatric Innovation Network

Georgia Tech Pediatric Innovation Network An innovative pediatric research partnership.

Children’s and the Georgia Institute of Technology have a common interest in collaborative research that brings clinicians from Children’s, academic scientists from Emory University and engineers from Georgia Tech together to solve important problems in pediatrics and develop technological solutions for improving children’s health. With the formation of the Pediatric Technology Center, Children’s

and Georgia Tech will provide extraordinary opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration in pediatrics, creating breakthrough discoveries that often can only be found at the intersection of multiple disciplines. It is through generous donations that we are able to strategically foster these alliances that help enhance the lives of children and young adults.
