The Future of Treating Pediatric Heart Disease
Get a sneak peek at the pathbreaking work being done through Stanford's Basic Science and Engineering Initiative using artificial intelligence, 3D printing, and gene editing to transform the future of care for kids with heart disease.
Our Pediatric Heart Leaders
Dr. Anne Dubin is chief of the Division of Pediatric Cardiology and director of the Betty Irene Moore Children’s Heart Center. Known for her innovative and collaborative approach, Dr. Dubin leads impactful research on childhood heart issues such as abnormal heartbeat, heart failure, and heart disease.
Dr. Frank Hanley, chief pediatric heart surgeon, does the extraordinary: He gives a second chance at life to babies and kids with serious and oftentimes life-threatening heart defects. His revolutionary surgical technique has replaced years of interventions with a single surgery.
Dr. Marlene Rabinovitch leads our Basic Science and Engineering (BASE) research program. Along with her multidisciplinary team of world-class scientists, engineers, and heart experts, Rabinovitch has the goal of curing congenital heart disease in her lifetime.
Born a Fighter
At just 1 week old, Nataly had to undergo not one, but two life-saving surgeries. Throughout her lengthy hospital stay, her entire family felt looked after and loved.

Helping Kids with Heart Disease Thrive
Expand Life-Saving Programs
Our Fetal Cardiology program screens pregnant moms, trains physicians to deliver a difficult diagnosis with compassion, and provides families with resources to prepare for life with a baby who has heart disease.
Invest in Innovation
We’re using artificial intelligence—developed in partnership with the Stanford School of Engineering—to prevent complications, improve outcomes, and get kids home faster.
Provide Care and Comfort
We provide comprehensive care for kids with heart disease so they can get necessary therapies and support as they grow. This includes social and emotional services as well as family assistance for lodging, food, and transportation while a child is in treatment.
