Special Interests
Research Interests
My research is focused on the basic cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the lung’s response to injury and predisposition to fibroproliferation. I am a member of the Interstitial Lung Disease Program and an active participant in its clinical and research programs. In collaboration with the other members of the ILD Program, I am investigating novel therapies for the treatment of interstitial lung disease
