A broad range of respiratory research is undertaken by this group including:
Airway inflammation and remodeling (especially fibrogenesis and angiogenesis) and its relationship to airway function
Control of ventilation in animal models and in humans
Role of the bronchial circulation
Evidence Based Medicine as applied to the respiratory system
Respiratory effects of tobacco smoke
Causes and consequences of exercise-induced impairment of pulmonary gas transfer
Hidden patterns of lung function in disease
Airway inflammation in cystic fibrosis and its relationship with host-organism interactions
Clinical pharmacology studies of novel interventions in respiratory disease
Respiratory epidemiology – especially asthma, COPD and interstitial lung disease.
