The goal of pediatric urology research is to investigate genetic and molecular anomalies of the genitourinary tract of children. Many of these anomalies are congenital birth defects. Therefore, much of this work is focused in developmental biology. The lab is located in the John W. Duckett, M.D. Laboratory for Pediatric Urology (Building J, 8th floor, room 110).
