BioJennifer Woo Baidal is Associate Professor of Pediatrics, with tenure, and Associate Chair for Clinical Research in the Department of Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine. She is also Chair for the North American Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) Research Committee and a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Committee on Nutrition.
As the Principal Investigator for the Childhood Research in Obesity Prevention (CROP) lab, she has experience successfully obtaining funding through National Institutes of Health, PCORI, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and Doris Duke Foundation to lead action-oriented child health research. Dr. Woo Baidal’s health services research program aims to improve health for all children, with a focus on reducing childhood obesity. Her research program translates clinical, community, and epidemiologic findings into population-level interventions during pregnancy, infancy, and early childhood to reduce food insecurity, improve nutrition, and prevent childhood obesity and related chronic diseases. She has shown the vital role of early life factors on chronic disease prevention, including the promise of 'food as prevention' for infants in households with food insecurity. Her work has been featured by the New York Times, NPR, and CNN, and cited in AAP guidelines and by the National Academies of Science and Medicine. In 2023, she was honored with the AAP's Mitchell B Cohen Early to Mid-Career Leadership Award. -
