About
By leveraging the unparalleled integration offered by in vivo and ex-vivo animal models, our lab studies the key determinants of effective airway mucus clearance in health and the consequences of its impairment in muco-obstructive lung diseases. We test mechanistic hypothesis and develop screening platforms for pre-clinical development of therapies aimed at resolving acute or chronic airway mucus obstruction.
