About Me
Shaili Amatya, MBBS, a board certified neonatologist, joined Penn State College of Medicine as assistant professor of pediatrics after finishing a neonatal-perinatal medicine fellowship at Westchester Medical Center, NY. Dr. Amatya's interests are in newborn respiratory medicine. She has conducted and published clinical trials comparing various modes of ventilation. During fellowship, Dr. Amatya studied the role of Hedgehog interactive protein variant in the susceptibility of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and patent ductus arteriosus. Currently, she is interested in the neonatal mouse model of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and studying the regulation and functional differences of human SP-A variants under various noxious stimuli like mechanical ventilation, inflammation, and oxidative stress.
