Investigators at The Saban Research Institute are working toward the day when children are no longer threatened by diseases like cancer, congenital heart defects, diabetes, sickle cell anemia, epilepsy, autism, vision defects, immune deficiencies or respiratory disorders. Our institute is one of the few freestanding research centers in the United States where scientific inquiry is combined with clinical care and is devoted exclusively to children.

Our researchers and physician-scientists seek answers to questions of human biology by finding new ways to see inside the body, explore the enormous potential of stem cells, unlock the mysteries of cancer cells, understand the basis for birth defects, discover influential genes, and develop new tools to prevent and treat serious illness in children in the hospital and in the community.

Faculty Appointments

Our researchers hold faculty appointments at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California.
