Impact of lung disease on respiratory impedance in young children with cystic fibrosisThe present study investigated whether lung function measured by forced oscillation technique would be impaired in the presence of infection,...

Living with lung disease: experimental models to assess the long-term effects of prematurityLaboratory models provide an important tool in helping to understand the cellular and molecular drivers of respiratory disease. Many animal models exist that model the neonatal outcomes of preterm birth.
The Foundations of Lung Disease Team is focused on improving the diagnosis, treatment, and lifelong care of childhood lung disease.
