Abstract:
The rapid evolution of the subspecialty of neonatology, biologic sciences, and health care delivery provide a myriad of career opportunities. The expected complexity of a academic career in neonatal medicine in the 21st century will require training in patient care, basic and clinical sciences, and teaching and an understanding of local and national issues that have impact on care of newborns. The training of skilled neonatal health care workers and health of our infants will depend on the preparation of neonatologists who will provide clinical care and training and generate new knowledge related to the care of newborn infants and their families.
