Jaques Belik and Jae Kim to the full-time faculty at the <strong>Hospital</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Sick</strong> <strong>Children</strong>, and Drs. Shaheen Doctor and Eugene Ng to the part-time faculty at the Sunnybrook and Women’s College Health Sciences Centre. <strong>The</strong> three level III NICUs at the <strong>Hospital</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Sick</strong> <strong>Children</strong>, Mt. Sinai <strong>Hospital</strong> and the Sunnybrook & Women’s College Health Sciences Centre continue to experience severe staffing difficulties, in parallel with the increased demand <strong>for</strong> tertiary beds in the region and a general increase in patient acuity within the units. All three units have been further compromised over the last year due to closures relating to outbreaks of infection. Despite the best ef<strong>for</strong>ts of the three NICUs to minimize patient transfers out of region during these outbreaks, an increase in patient deferrals out of region and out of country did occur. It was <strong>for</strong>tunate that the number of Neonatal Transport teams, based at the <strong>Hospital</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Sick</strong> <strong>Children</strong>, had been recently increased, and were thus able to cope with the increased demand <strong>for</strong> their services. Active staff recruitment continues at all three centres. <strong>The</strong> Division continues to train the largest number of subspeciality trainees in Neonatology of any centre in Canada. <strong>The</strong> recently observed and welcome increase in the number of Canadian trainees continues. Various members of the Division have obtained new or continuing peer-reviewed research support <strong>for</strong> clinical and laboratory research in the last year. 36 Division of NEONATOLOGY publications Aghajafari F, Murphy K, Matthews S, Ohlsson A, Amankwah K, Hannah M: Repeated doses of antenatal corticosteroids in animals: a systematic review.
