Faculty

Dr. Bruno completed her pediatric residency training at Thomas Jefferson University/duPont Hospital for Children and her neonatal-perinatal medicine training at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Her interests include medical education, neonatal neurodevelopmental outcomes, and neonatal simulation training.

Following the completion of medical school and Pediatrics residency at the University of Pittsburgh, and Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania, I came to Yale where I am an Associate Professor on the Clinician-Educator track in the Division of Perinatal Medicine in the Department of Pediatrics. I am dedicated the education and training of fellows in the department, as the Director of Fellowships as well as the Associate Program Director for the Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship Training Program.  I am also deeply committed to the education of trainees and medical staff in a variety of programs, many of which are simulation-based and interprofessional.  Due to my desire to enhance my knowledge and skills as an educator, I completed a master's degree in Medical Education through the University of Cincinnati, the LEAD program through the Association of Pediatric Program Directors, and am a Certified Healthcare Simulation Educator through the Society of Simulation in Healthcare.  I am interested in educational research, particularly as it applies to procedural training, assessment of competency in the simulated and clinical environments, and curriculum development.
