Our collaborative manuscript, titled “Airway Epithelial Heterogeneity and Mucus Plugging in Asthmatic Bronchioles,” has been published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. In this study, we examine the pathological and molecular characteristics of asthma bronchioles (small airways). https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40986379/

We are excited to announce that our research proposal, focusing on the inflammation-induced loss of distal airway secretory cells in CF, has been awarded funding for the next two years by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Dr. Murano has been awarded the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Award for “Mechanisms Driving the Loss of Small Airway Epithelial Identity and its Consequences in CF Pathophysiology”

Dr. Stevens has been awarded a Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Award for his project titled ‘Disrupted lipid metabolism and small airway dysfunction by chronic hypoxia in CF’
