In this episode, Dr. Amy Paller shares some of her insights and strategies behind her long and impactful career as a clinician, translational researcher, and Professor and Chair.
One of those insights is that in order to succeed as a researcher, it takes a village. She advises students that success in research depends on a great team, as well as mentors and funding. For her own career, she has found that a diversity of interests, passion for her work, and time with family has helped fight burnout and has kept her energized.
Dr. Paller currently serves as the Chair and Professor of Dermatology, Professor of Pediatrics, and Principal Investigator of the NIH-funded Skin Disease Research Center at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine. An author of more than 350 original publications, Dr. Paller is an NIH-funded investigator with a focus on genetic disorders of the skin and cutaneous immunologic disorders in children, including atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. Dr. Paller has also directed the Pediatric Dermatology Clinical Trials Unit at Northwestern for the past 20 years, and has been the lead investigator on several landmark trials in pediatric skin disease. Apart from her significant contributions to clinical dermatology and translational research, Dr. Paller has been a teacher and mentor to many students, residents, and researchers, many of whom are now at institutions across the country and globe.
