Pediatrics


The Department of Pediatrics is where leading-edge, patient-focused care, discovery and innovation take place. Our dedicated team of pediatric physician-scientists are committed to keep pushing forward in a relentless pursuit to improve neurodevelopmental outcomes among preterm infants.

A gift on Giving Day will support our growing team of physician-scientists studying neurology and neurodevelopmental research programs. It will provide vital funding for scientists like Terrie Inder, MD and Peter Anderson, PhD, whose research has been foundational to the understanding of early brain development and disorders of neonates.


As a national leader and Orange County’s only academic health system, UCI Health is at the forefront of innovation, providing unparalleled research-based expertise and the best possible care for our pediatric patients. Your generosity is critical. It is the fuel that furthers our mission: Discover. Teach. Heal.

Your support accelerates the translation of groundbreaking discoveries from our research labs into patient bedside care.
