Featured Research
Nemours Center for Childhood Cancer Research
Our goal is to achieve 100 percent cure rate of childhood cancers with minimal side effects. The work of NCCCR seeks to include scientists, physicians, patients, families and the community. Under the direction of Ayyappan Rajasekaran, PhD, NCCCR is working to create a National Cancer Institute-designated center where basic research closely complements clinical research in childhood cancers and develops strategies to advance cancer awareness, diagnosis and treatment.
Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism
The comprehensive research program of the Nemours Center for Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolic Disorders is closely linked with clinical care and health education for our patients. Pediatric endocrinology is a specialty dealing with both common and very rare diseases. Type 1 diabetes, the second most common chronic disease in children, is probably the most recognized condition of the pediatric endocrine specialist, yet disorders of growth and puberty also top the list.
Orthopedics Research and Development
The Center for Orthopedics Research and Development (CORD) works closely with Nemours Department of Orthopedics to develop devices and methods that directly impact children with musculoskeletal and orthopedic disabilities. The Center efforts are focused within two core laboratories - The Pediatric Engineering Research Laboratory (PERL) and the Bone and Cartilage Research Laboratory (BCRL)
Pediatric Psychology Research
The Center for Pediatric Psychology Research conducts pediatric psychology research and research-based training for patients and families at Nemours Children’s Clinic Jacksonville. Research staff provide consultative services directly to patients and families as well as collaborate with Nemours pediatric specialists for studies involving psychological aspects of pediatric health and illness.
Center for Pediatric Research
The central goal of the Center for Pediatric Research is to spawn pediatric research programs and principal investigators at Nemours, as well as expand our existing translational research programs on pediatric disorders.
Technology Transfer
Clinical Trials
Clinical trials at Nemours evaluate new medicines, new devices, new treatments, or new applications for old treatments.
