UC Davis researchers are leading a major $5.5 million study to better understand how children with Down syndrome develop expressive communication — the skills used to share what we want, think or feel.

Angela John Thurman, a professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and the UC Davis MIND Institute, is leading the research. The five-year project is funded by a grant from the National Institutes of Health.

“Most children with Down syndrome have delays in developing expressive communication,” Thurman explained. “We know these delays are common and that children develop at different speeds, but we still don’t know enough about how their communication skills change and grow.”

When a child has to spend the holidays in the hospital, families have a chance to "shop" at our holiday workshop, a superstore in our hospital with free toys and gifts, giftwrapping services, live music and refreshments. Thank you to our Child Life and Creative Arts Therapy team and our donors for making this magic possible every December.

Congratulations to Amy Powne, a pediatric surgery nurse practice manager with UC Davis Health, who was honored with the 2025 Lori J. Howell Excellence in Fetal Nursing Award at this year’s North American Fetal Therapy Network (NAFTNet) meeting.

In her role in the Fetal Care and Treatment Center, Amy guides families through the challenges of prenatal diagnosis, fetal intervention and planning for complex postnatal care for their children.

This international award is given to an individual who embodies the level of excellence in fetal nursing that Lori J. Howell brought to the field as recognized by their physician colleagues. Howell, who died last year, was a nationally known leader and mentor who defined the currently known role of fetal nurse coordinator. This award honors nursing colleagues in the field of fetal diagnosis and treatment.

Wearing bulky clothes or winter coats can prevent a snug fit of a car seat harness. Buckle up, then add coats or blankets over the top of your child.
