About Diana Bianchi
Bianchi has led the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, a role considered to be "the nation's pediatrician" since 2016. She is the first woman to fill this position since the institute was founded 60 years ago.
Throughout the COVID pandemic, Dr. Bianchi championed the inclusion of women, pregnant people, infants, children and people with disabilities in research to improve their care.
This includes funding research on the effects of COVID-19 on pregnancy and fetal development and infants and children, particularly how to improve the safety of in-person schooling.
She has called for the inclusion of pregnant and nursing people in COVID-19 vaccine research and launched studies on the vaccines' potential effects on menstruation and fertility, leading to new understandings of the effects of the pandemic on populations that have historically been excluded from research.
Bianchi received a B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania and an M.D. from the Stanford University School of Medicine.
