We investigate essential functions of biological processes and fundamental mechanisms of diseases and disorders affecting children’s health. Our lab-based programs are organized into virtual scientific neighborhoods that promote collaborations.
Our work translates the discoveries of basic science into promising clinical applications. Multidisciplinary teams of researchers collaborate on clinical research on a range of specialties and conditions organized into program areas.
We drive the research on biological, psychological, social, behavioral, and environmental causes and influencers of common and prominent child health problems to generate evidence for clinical and public health interventions.
The Quantitative Science pillar provides cutting-edge statistical and analytical support and computational techniques to maximize research impact and improve the health outcomes of pediatric patients.
Our diverse team of researchers are influential leaders in investigating pediatric health issues and diseases, and include physicians, scientists, postdocs, coordinators, statisticians, data analysts, trainees, and others who routinely collaborate with medical centers, academic institutions, and community partners across the globe.

In his message, Stanley Manne Children's Research Institute President and Chief Research Officer, Patrick Seed, MD, PhD, lauds the collaborative teamwork of Manne Research Institute's research compliance team and institutional review board in maintaining research ethics, safeguarding participant health and rights, and advancing scientific discoveries to improve children's lives.
Two studies authored by Neeraj Patel, MD, MPH, MBS, provide insights into the association between insurance type, race, and ethnicity and access to and timing of care pediatric patients receive for sports-related injuries.
A new multi-center study performed at three primary care sports medicine clinics, including Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, investigated associations between sports specialization and health-related quality of life after injury and found that there is no adverse effect of sports specialization on health-related quality of life after an injury in young athletes.
