Matthew Markovetz, PhD
Research Assistant Professor
Areas of Interest
Mucus biophysics and liquid and ion transport that regulate mucus properties and clearance, image analysis and spatial biology
About
Dr. Markovetz is passionate about studying the origins of muco-obstructive lung diseases like cystic fibrosis, asthma, and COPD in a translational way by employing techniques from imaging, physics, and engineering in epithelial tissues. By studying the physiology and pathophysiology of these tissues, we can better understand disease progression and develop novel treatments for them.
