Our research program covers the full spectrum of pediatric pulmonary care, from early prevention to advanced respiratory support.

Focus Areas

We focus on several key focus areas:

Improving Outcomes: Asthma & Allergy Research

We study how environment, biology, and access to care affect children with asthma. By identifying barriers to self-management and developing community-based interventions, we hope to reduce hospital visits and improve long-term control for every child.

Advancing Therapies: Cystic Fibrosis Research

Our team participates in national clinical trials and registry studies to evaluate new medications and care strategies for cystic fibrosis. These partnerships help deliver cutting-edge treatments that improve survival, lung function, and quality of life.

Protecting Breathing Strength: Neuromuscular Respiratory Disorders Research

We investigate how conditions like spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) affect lung function and sleep. Through coordinated care and research, we鈥檙e developing new ways to preserve respiratory strength and independence.

Enhancing Support: Airway & Ventilation Care Research

Our research focuses on children who rely on tracheostomies or long-term ventilation. We study best practices for respiratory support, caregiver training, and hospital-to-home transitions to ensure safety and quality of life.

Promoting Growth: Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) Research

We explore how early nutrition, respiratory management, and follow-up care affect lung development in premature infants. By identifying protective factors early, we鈥檙e helping improve outcomes for babies born too soon.

Understanding Sleep: Pediatric Sleep Medicine Research

We study how the body controls breathing during sleep and what happens when those patterns are disrupted. Our goal is to improve daytime function, learning, and quality of life for children with chronic sleep challenges.

Our research is guided by core themes that shape every project:</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><b>Equity in access and quality:</b> Identifying and addressing barriers such as language, housing, and socioeconomic factors to make care more equitable and effective.</li>\r\n<li><b>Personalized care across time:</b> Tailoring treatments to each child鈥檚 condition and follow outcomes to understand how early experiences affect lifelong lung health.</li>\r\n<li><b>From discovery to delivery:</b> Translating scientific findings into everyday clinical practice, ensuring new knowledge directly benefits children and families.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n"}} id=text-ef5b0b26f0 class=cmp-text>

Our research is guided by core themes that shape every project:

• Equity in access and quality: Identifying and addressing barriers such as language, housing, and socioeconomic factors to make care more equitable and effective.
• Personalized care across time: Tailoring treatments to each child鈥檚 condition and follow outcomes to understand how early experiences affect lifelong lung health.
• From discovery to delivery: Translating scientific findings into everyday clinical practice, ensuring new knowledge directly benefits children and families.

Pediatric clinical trials and research studies are important for advancing medical knowledge and improving care for kids around the world. Our researchers lead clinical research to study new drugs, treatments, devices, and techniques. We also contribute to national registries and collaboratives to further research in this area.
