Conrad L Epting, MD, serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Pediatrics (Critical Care) with secondary appointment in Pathology at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine. He maintains active affiliations with the Institute for Public Health and Medicine (IPHAM) - Osher Center for Integrative Health, Northwestern University Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (NUCATS), and Stanley Manne Children's Research Institute, reflecting his translational research focus.
His research spans Critical Care Medicine, Pediatric Cardiology, and Regenerative Medicine, with significant contributions to cardiac reprogramming techniques and inflammation mechanisms during pediatric cardiac surgery. Additional work in molecular parasitology examines Trypanosoma brucei enzyme functions, demonstrating interdisciplinary expertise bridging clinical pediatrics and basic science.
Recent publications (2021-2023) reveal a strategic focus on cardiovascular regeneration through stem cell approaches and critical analysis of cardiopulmonary bypass complications. His parasitology work identifies novel lipase functions in trypanosomal metabolism, highlighting therapeutic target potential. These publications collectively emphasize molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac and infectious disease processes.
Dr. Epting maintains professional transparency through annual industry disclosures, including 2024 ownership interest in Vivacelle Bio, Inc. His research environment leverages Northwestern's integrated institutes for public health, clinical translation, and children's research, facilitating collaborative approaches to pediatric critical care challenges.
