Emergency Medicine Patient_Hero

Medical College of Wisconsin Pediatric Emergency Medicine Faculty Scholarly Interests

The Pediatric Emergency Medicine section focuses on high impact research and quality improvement projects that enhance patient care locally and nationally. The broad range of our faculty's academic interests reflect the responsibility PEM physicians feel for the continuum of emergency care: from pre-hospital treatment, to emergency department care, and through transition to inpatient care, treatment at home or follow-up care.
