Overview
I am a physician-scientist with clinical and research expertise in lung transplantation and advanced lung disease, in particular idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). My research aims to advance scientific knowledge related to the clinical and genetic risk factors underlying the development of lung fibrosis including that occurring in chronic lung transplant rejection and diseases leading to transplant, such as IPF. I also have an interest in understanding how the airway epithelial response to injury impacts lung repair, fibrosis, and tissue immunity.
