Children as Victims of Bioterrorism: Protecting the
Fragile Host
Chairs: Phyllis Dennery,
Stanford University School of Medicine, Palo Alto, CA
and Tina Lee Cheng, Johns Hopkins University School of
Medicine, Baltimore, MD
With the recent world events
and new threats of biowarfare, what should pediatricians
know? Due to their size and physiology, children are at
higher risk of injury from bioterrorism. This session
will address the biology, clinical manifestations, and
possible preventive strategies for likely biowarfare
agents. The unique vulnerability of the child will be
addressed.

Cancer, Blood and the Kidney: Common Themes
Chair: Ellis D. Avner,
President-Elect, American Society of Pediatric
Nephrology and George R. Buchanan, President, American
Society of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology
Many children with cancer,
hematological disorders, or kidney disease have complex,
multisystem problems. Advances in cell and molecular
biology provide insights into the interrelationships of
cancer, blood, and the kidney and have led to new
diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for the clinician.
Such approaches are reviewed in this symposium, which
focuses specifically on the nephrological complications
of sickle cell anemia and bone marrow transplantation,
hematological complications of nephrotic syndrome, and
the molecular pathophysiology of WT-1-associated
disorders.

Children as Research Subjects: Ethical and Regulatory
Issues
Chair: Myron Genel, Yale
University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT
A number of highly publicized
adverse events, including the death of two volunteers
participating in non-therapeutic research, and the
federal shutdown of research at many well-recognized
academic institutions because of inadequate compliance
with regulatory requirements have intensified scrutiny
of the protection afforded to human subjects
participating in research, including children.
Furthermore a Maryland court has recently decreed that
children cannot participate in research without the
potential for direct benefit. As a consequence there has
been increasing media attention and Congressional
concern regarding the adequacy of institutional
oversight and investigator attentiveness to established
standards and regulations. In addition, new regulations
issued under the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of l996(HIPAA) threaten the capacity
to conduct health services and outcomes research. These
issues will be addressed in the 9th annual Public Policy
Plenary Symposium in an interactive format intended to
stimulate dialogue among the members of the panel and
with the audience.

Disaster Preparedness: Beyond 9/11
Chairs: Tina L. Cheng,
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore,
MD; Danielle Laraque, Mount Sinai School of Medicine,
New York, NY; and Benard Dreyer, New York, NY
The impact of 9/11 and the
public health aftermath have affected us personally and
professionally. This session will address what the child
health professional needs to know regarding disaster
planning and preparedness. Speakers will review and
provide updates on national and regional systems for
emergency management and how those systems interact with
local public health agencies, the pediatrician's role in
the community's preparedness including what the school
system, the pediatric office and the patient should be
doing to prepare and respond, recognition and management
of chemical and biologic agents of terrorism, and the
psychological reactions to disaster and stress.
