Dr. Aaron Hamvas is the Raymond and Hazel Speck Barry Professor of Neonatology and Head of the Division of Neonatology at the Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital and the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. He has had a longstanding interest in genetic contributions to lung diseases that affect newborns, children and adults and has combined his clinical interests in the care of newborn respiratory diseases with an integrated investigative program to identify genes and other modifiable factors that influence outcomes of newborns. The application of high-resolution genetic technology has created many academic career opportunities by unmasking new, rare diseases which permit partnering with families to understand mechanism and ultimately intervention.
