Jennifer Andrews

Jennifer Andrews is an Associate Professor and Director of Research for the Division of Genetics and Developmental Pediatrics as well as the Division of Pediatric Cardiology Congenital Heart Program at the University of Arizona. Her research interests lie in interdisciplinary translational research, taking clinical information backwards to bench science to describe and identify endophenotypic markers for developmental, congenital and behavioral conditions. This can include understanding genotype-phenotype relationships, determining various endogenous approaches to measuring phenotypes and severity; and improving the quality of life of individuals with neurodevelopmental and congenital conditions throughout their lives. She is currently focused on improving the quality of life for individuals with symptomatic hypermobility through symptom management and autonomic functioning.
