About the Episode

Introducing our new podcast: The Lead in Peds. Tune in as host Nathan Kuppermann, MD, MPH, sits down with experts from Children’s National Hospital to uncover the leading research and clinical developments shaping the future of pediatric medicine. The Lead in Peds raises some of science’s most challenging questions — and examines the answers.

In our flagship episode, Dr. Kuppermann, chief academic officer, chair of Pediatrics, and Fight For Children Distinguished Chair of Academic Medicine, talks about caring for congenital heart disease across the lifespan with two leaders in pediatric cardiology. Wayne Franklin, MD, FACC, senior vice president of the Children’s National Heart Center, and Mary Donofrio, MD, FAAP, FACC, FASE, director of Prenatal Cardiology, share the extraordinary care and research underway at Children’s National.

Highlights include the importance of prenatal detection and meticulous birth plans based on each infant’s level of risk, the promise of advanced fetal imaging and state-of-the-art intensive care monitoring before and after treatment and the need to remain unwaveringly focused on finding innovative ways to help these kids to grow up stronger.
