Resident Physician
University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center
Dallas, Texas, United States
My name is Shelly Saini, and I am a Resident Physician in Pediatrics at Children's Medical Center Dallas. I completed my medical degree at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine (UMMSM), where I had a keen interest in immunologic medicine. During my graduate education I explored the interplay between immunology and clinical disease, which eventually led to my participation in the Infectious Disease and Immunologic Medicine Pathway at UMMSM under the leadership of Dr. Gregory Plano. Through this program, I was exposed to numerous seminars conducted by leaders in the fields of immunology and infectious disease and participated in a three-year long research endeavor aimed at better understanding immunologic dysregulation in pediatric HIV infection. This experience sparked my initial interest in research, and through my experiences in residency, I found my passion for hematology with the goal of bettering the lives of my patients through research endeavors.
