My lab studies cellular and molecular mechanisms of lung alveolar capillary barrier function in sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome. We use state of the art cell and mouse models to define the key cellular processes that drive disruption of the alveolar capillary barrier. Mechanistic studies are complemented by translational studies in human models of lung injury.
