The presenting authors work in the field has been recognized in several contexts; including a 3 year position for the research program “Brain damage and neurological impairment in newborns molecular mechanisms, clinical significance and novel therapeutic Interventions”; a 2 year support for the research program “Cell-free hemoglobin, hyperoxia and brain development in newborn infants with congenital heart defect requiring surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass”; the Young Investigator Exchange Program Award, “In recognition of research achievements in pediatrics” by the Society for Pediatric Research in 2014.I have authored and co-authored 39 publications. Furthermore, I serve as regular editor and reviewer in several international scientific journals in the current research field.
