Associate Professor of Pediatrics, and Biochemistry & Molecular Biophysics
Director, Division of Critical Care Medicine
Critical Care Medicine
Pathobiology Unit

Biochemistry & Molecular Biophysics
Dr. Allan Doctor is the Chief of Pediatric Critical Care at St Louis Children’s Hospital and Associate Professor of Pediatrics and Biochemistry & Molecular Biophysics at the Washington University School of Medicine.
Dr. Doctor earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Neurobiology (1984) and his Medical Degree (1989), both at the University of Virginia. Following residency in Emergency Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh, he went to the Children’s Hospital, Boston, where he completed additional residency training in Pediatrics as well as Fellowships in Pediatric Emergency Medicine and Critical Care. While at Harvard, Dr. Doctor’s research training was focused upon novel means for the mechanical support of lung injury and for restoring lost physiologic control of pulmonary blood flow. Upon returning to the University of Virginia as a Pediatric Intensivist, Dr. Doctor began to explore the role of context-responsive signaling by erythrocytes in the control of regional blood flow and made the observation that this process appears disrupted in severe inflammatory states. This observation forms the basis of the hypothesis that acquired injury to erythrocytes may facilitate the propagation of dysfunctional vascular control under conditions of severe inflammatory stress. He came to Washington University in 2006 to assume leadership of the Division of Pediatric Critical Care.
