Following World War II, extensive resources were dedicated to research, which led to the first successful treatment of histoplasmosis by Dr. Warren Wheeler. Eventually the research conducted at the hospital would be consolidated under C-H-I-L-D, or Children’s Hospital Investigative Laboratory Division. In 1964, Children’s Hospital Research Foundation was founded. In 1998, The Children's Hospital Research Foundation became the Columbus Children's Research Institute. In 2007, following a gift from the Nationwide Foundation, it became The Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital.[1] Research CentersThe Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital is divided into 12 Centers of Emphasis.[2] Medical firsts, breakthroughs, and contributionsThe first successful treatment of histoplasmosis by Dr. Warren Wheeler occurred at the center in the mid-20th century. In 1965, the world's first rhinovirus reference center was established in Ross Hall at the Hospital. In the 1970s, research by the hospital contributed to an innovative therapy in the fight against Reye's Syndrome. In the 1980s, Dr. Samuel Mites created microvolume techniques for bloodwork and Dr. H. William Chatworthy pioneered pediatric surgeries by developing portosystemic shunt procedures. In the 1990s, Dr. Christopher Walker led a nationwide project on hepatitis C infection and immunobiology. In 2000, Dr. Robert Castile patented breakthrough technology, an "adult-type" infant pulmonary function testing device. In 2003, the research institute conducted HIV vaccine trials. In 2006, the first human gene therapy trial for muscular dystrophy was conducted at the research institute. In 2009, the institute again conducted trials for an HIV vaccine.[3] References1. ^History of Research Institute, Nationwide Children's Hospital, Retrieved 18 sept 2009. {{DEFAULTSORT:Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital}}2. ^Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital Organization, Nationwide Children's Hospital, Retrieved 18 sept 2009. 3. ^Research Institute History, Nationwide Children's Hospital, Retrieved 18 sept 2009. 1 : Healthcare in Columbus, Ohio |
