Summary
Paul Schumacker received his B.S. and M.Eng. degrees in biomedical engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY. He then earned a PhD degree in the Department of Physiology at Albany Medical College, working in the laboratory of Dr. Thomas M. Saba. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship in the Section of Pulmonary Physiology at U.C. San Diego, working in the laboratory of Drs. John West and Peter Wagner. In 1983 he was recruited to the Pulmonary and Critical Care Section in the Department of Medicine at the University of Chicago. There, he was promoted to Assistant Professor in 1987, Associate Professor in 1989, and Professor with tenure in 1994. From 1995-2001 he served as the Chairman of the Comparative Medicine and Pathology Committee. In 2004 he was recruited to the Neonatology Division in the Department of Pediatrics at Northwestern University where he is Director of Neonatology Research, and Children’s Memorial Medical Center. In 2005 was named as the first Patrick M. Magoon Professor in Neonatology Research.
