[1] Paul Ernest Love is an American physician and Immunologist. He is a senior investigator and head of the Section on Hematopoiesis and Lymphocyte Biology at Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. His research focus is in the area of mammalian hematopoiesis.
Love earned his B.S. in biochemistry, summa cum laude, from Syracuse University. [2] He received his M.D. and a Ph.D. in the MSTP program at the University of Rochester. [3] Before completing post-doctoral research at NICHD, he completed a residency program in Laboratory Medicine at Washington University in St. Louis and a fellowship in Human Genetics at NICHD.
Love started his career as an intramural Principal Investigator in 1993 and currently serves as a tenured senior investigator at NICHD. [4] He was a commissioned officer in the United States Public Health Service [5] from 1989 to 2019 and retired at the rank of Captain in 2019.
His lab is located in the Eunice Kennedy Shriver, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and has a long history of investigating T-cell development.
Love and his colleagues have conducted studies on several aspects of mammalian T cell development including the role of T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signaling and the role of the newly identified molecule, Themis in T cell development and for T cell function. [6] Work from Love's lab has contributed unique insights into the function of the TCR signaling motifs (ITAMs) in T cell activation and for T cell effector responses.

Data Sharing for Demographic Research (DSDR) advances research on maternal and child health and the life course by making data discoverable and accessible for secondary analysis. DSDR is a research data and information repository that adheres to the FAIR principals. DSDR focuses on data with external validity that can be generalized to populations.
The Pediatric Trials Network (PTN) is a consortium of clinical research sites located around the United States that are cooperating in the design and conduct of clinical trials to improve medication labels affecting dosages for young patients. It conducts trials under the Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act, passed in 2002. The network is sponsored by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD).
Diana W. Bianchi is the director of the U.S. National Institutes of Health Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, a post often called “the nation’s pediatrician.” She is a medical geneticist and neonatologist noted for her research on fetal cell microchimerism and prenatal testing. Bianchi had previously been the Natalie V. Zucker Professor of Pediatrics, Obstetrics, and Gynecology at Tufts University School of Medicine and founder and executive director of the Mother Infant Research Institute at Tufts Medical Center. She also has served as Vice Chair for Research in the Department of Pediatrics at the Floating Hospital for Children at Tufts Medical Center.
