Pediatric Urologist Academic Researcher
Focused on congenital and reconstructive pediatric urology, clinical outcomes, and the responsible application of artificial intelligence in pediatric surgical care.

Medical education
Evidence-based teaching for clinicians and trainees.
Pediatric Urology Academy is an educational initiative founded by Amin Afrasiabi, MD, translating guidelines, primary literature, clinical reasoning, and surgical judgment into structured pediatric urology education.
Explore the AcademyClinical focus
Congenital disease, reconstruction, lower urinary tract function, and long-term outcomes are considered as connected clinical problems rather than isolated diagnoses.
Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract, including duplex systems and related anatomic variants.
Hydronephrosis and ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO), with emphasis on anatomy, function, timing, and outcomes.
Reflux, bladder dysfunction, posterior urethral valves (PUV), pressure management, continence, and upper-tract preservation.
Primary and reoperative reconstruction with attention to long-term functional and cosmetic outcomes.
Complex urinary reconstruction and continence procedures requiring integrated anatomic and functional decision-making.
Research
AI is used where it can add clinically meaningful information—not as an end in itself.
Research overviewLongitudinal clinical datasets designed around real decision points and outcomes.
Functional and clinical outcomes after pediatric urologic intervention.
Structured appraisal of evidence to clarify what is established and what remains uncertain.
Responsible use of predictive tools where they can add clinically meaningful information.
Academic work
The publication record is anchored to persistent academic profiles, making current and historical work straightforward to verify.
