Robyn Wing, MD, MPH, FAAP is an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine & Pediatrics at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University.
Dr. Wing received a bachelor of science degree in biology from Providence College and a medical degree from the University of Massachusetts Medical School. She completed a pediatric residency and served as chief resident at the University of Massachusetts Children’s Medical Center. She then completed a fellowship in pediatric emergency medicine at Hasbro Children’s Hospital. During her fellowship, she also received a master of public health degree from the Brown University School of Public Health. She is currently an attending physician in the pediatric emergency department at Hasbro Children’s Hospital and the Director of Pediatric Simulation at the Lifespan Medical Simulation Center.
Dr. Wing’s work focuses on pediatric emergency medicine, quality improvement and medical education including simulation-based graduate medical education and interprofessional education. Her current research interests include simulation-based airway skills training and competency assessment, teamwork training, and the use of simulation in medical education in the community setting. In 2022, she was awarded the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) Junior Faculty Teaching Award.
Dr. Wing is co-founder and co-chair of the National Emergency Airway Registry for Pediatric Emergency Medicine (NEAR4PEM), leading efforts to improve and study pediatric airway management in emergency departments across the world.
