Juan Carlos is a Senior Undergraduate Engineering Physics student at Tecnológico de Monterrey, Mexico. He joined the FNNDSC in September. He works as a research intern in the FNNDSC Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) Program with Dr. Jason Sutin, where his main projects are focused on augmentation of the electronic and optical hardware capabilities for the diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) and NIRS systems, aiming to enhance their objective, quantitative diagnose capabilities. He looks forward to continue working on translational research projects and pursue a PhD in Medical Physics.
Scheduling Booster Doses
The new Pfizer bivalent booster recommendation applies to those people ages 12 years and older AND who are two months out from the completion of their primary series or their most recent booster.
BCH employees are asked to schedule their booster dose in advance. We will accept walk-ins.
· Employees may schedule by emailing COVIDVACCINERESCHEDULE@childrens.harvard.edu with the following information: name, CH ID#, date of last vaccine dose, and requested appointment date and time.
· Employees may schedule by calling our PLP scheduling line at 617-919-7102.
Please note that receiving the single bivalent mRNA booster replaces all prior booster recommendations for this age group.
*Boston Children’s will offer the Moderna Bivalent COVID-19 booster when available.
