Cores, Shared Resources & Support Offices

Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital provides wide-ranging support for researchers on today’s studies that will lead to tomorrow’s advancements in pediatric medicine.

Advancements in pediatric health depend on fundamental scientific investigation aimed at the discovery of the basic mechanisms of disease that impact children, as well as the early origins of later-onset disease. Biomedical discovery at Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital has great potential to improve not only children’s health, but also future generations of adults.

Our institution-wide cores, shared resources and support offices serve as a vital resource for designing and implementing funded, innovative studies with researchers across disciplines and levels of experience in both basic and clinical/translational research.
