Charlotte Woods-Hill, MD, MSHP is a Research Scholar at the Center for Violence Prevention (CVP) at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). Dr. Woods-Hill is also an Assistant Professor of Anesthesiology and Critical Care at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and CHOP. Her broad areas of interest are the intersection of healthcare resource utilization, health policy, and implementation science, as it relates to preventable pediatric patient harm and pediatric patient safety. 

She has received funding from the NIH, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the MITRE Corporation, and the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Microbiome Center. As an implementation science mentor, she has supported trainees through successful grant proposals to the Thrasher Foundation and the Leonard Davis Institute. Dr. Woods-Hill has published her work in leading pediatric and critical care journals, and regularly speaks at national meetings as an emerging expert on the use of implementation science in the critical care environment. 

She also founded and co-leads the first-ever national research collaborative focused on implementation science for pediatric research, called ECLIPSE, as a part of the PALISI (Pediatric Acute Injury and Sepsis Investigators) Network. She is currently piloting firearm safe storage interventions in the CHOP PICU and expanding this work nationally through ECLIPSE institutions. She mentors critical care fellows and junior faculty who are focused on firearm injury prevention, disparities in firearm injuries, and trauma/injury prevention; concurrent with her separate body of work on diagnostic stewardship in the critical care setting.
