Dr. Rebecca Dang is an Instructor in the Division of General Pediatrics at Stanford University. She earned her medical degree at Georgetown School of Medicine and completed her pediatric residency at Kaiser Permanente Northern California. She also completed pediatric hospital medicine fellowship and a master’s program in clinical research and epidemiology at Stanford University. Dr. Dang provides clinical care for children on the pediatric ward and newborn nursery. Dr. Dang’s research interest focuses on high-value pediatric care, which she hopes to improve through building evidence for common, understudied practices. Engaging both health care professionals and families, her LHS project aims to evaluate clinical interventions and outcomes associated with neonatal hypothermia in the newborn nursery and understand newborn nursery healthcare professionals’ and parents’ perspectives on thermoregulation and hypothermia care.
