Clinical Interests:

My clinical interests include the care of lung transplant patients, the development of therapies for chronic lung allograft rejection, and infectious complications post-lung transplantation.

Research Interests:

My research is focused on the pathogenesis of airway epithelial cell injury in chronic lung allograft rejection (i.e. bronchiolitis obliterans), using in vivo animal models to determine the mechanisms of bronchiolitis obliterans, and the role that inflammatory cytokines and growth factors play in the development of this condition.
