Jennifer Lynch is affiliated with the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, where she conducts research focused on biomedical optics in relation to congenital heart disease and pediatric cardiac anesthesiology. She utilizes her expertise in physics to explore various aspects of cerebral hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism in neonates, particularly those with critical congenital conditions. Lynch has contributed significantly to understanding the dynamics of brain health in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery, with a breadth of publications elucidating the complexities of cerebral blood flow and neuromonitoring. Her work extends to investigating the effects of surgical interventions on cerebral outcomes in vulnerable populations. Lynch remains actively engaged in research aimed at improving pediatric care through innovative optical techniques and methodologies, establishing her as a leading figure in her specialized field.
