Assistent Professor
Baylor College of Medicine
I went to medical school at the Universidad Nacional De Asuncion in Paraguay. I completed my Pediatrics residency at Bronx Lebanon Hospital in New York. After I completed my pediatric residency, I completed three fellowships: Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine, Pediatric Critical Care and Pediatric Cardiology. I completed Pediatric Cardiology on June 30, 2016. Currently, I am at Texas Children’s Baylor College of Medicine as an Assistance Professor in the department of critical care. My Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship, Pediatric Critical Care Fellowship, and Pediatric Cardiology fellowship have provided me with a thorough clinical background necessary to be successful in clinical research. I would like to enhance my foundations in research by finishing a master’s in data science with focus on Machine Learning in Southern Methodist University and research with big data which I believe to be the future Key to Self-learning Health Care Systems. This would be a novel means of performing research in the congenital heart field and I believe it to be the most efficient, cost effective, and the best way to answer clinical research questions for the congenital heart patient population. My focus currently is the application of data science in the evaluation of hemodynamic changes in response to different intervention in the Norwood population with the utilization of high-fidelity monitoring. Finally, my focus also is the study of S-T segment variability in the Norwood population as a sign of ischemia.
