Personal Statement

I am a senior investigator specializing in rare lung disease translational research with a focus on alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency, gene therapy, pulmonary fibrosis and alveolar macrophage function.

I have mentored a number of faculty in bench to bedside research at the NIH Clinical Center and the University of Florida. I am a former K24 grantee, a mentor on 2 T32 programs and the UF MD/PhD program. My role on applicant’s grant is to provide molecular biology support, access to lung tissue and guidance on the transition to patient-oriented research.
