There is a strong commitment on the part of the more than 400-member faculty, both full-time and part-time, to postgraduate education within the hospital setting and in the COPE program within the community. The approximately 60 subspecialty fellows enhance and extend that commitment.
Washington University School of Medicine and its distinguished students and faculty provide a scholarly environment in which the new frontiers of medicine are unraveled daily in the laboratory and in the clinic. The abundance of physician scientists and clinician-scholars complements the wealth of medical, nursing and allied health talent within our Medical Center.
The mission of the Department of Pediatrics at Washington University School of Medicine — to improve the health of children and adolescents through excellence in patient care, research, teaching and community service — is embraced by our faculty and staff who are deeply committed to the welfare of children and adolescents.
