Research project funded by Veterans Health Administration to study immune system activation in chronic lung disease and develop methods to reduce tissue injury while preserving lung defense.
Description
The project focuses on investigating mechanisms that account for persistent activation of immune systems in the lungs related to COPD. The project is funded by the Veterans Affairs and involves multiple immune pathways and cellular mechanisms. The project aims to develop new ways to limit tissue injury while maintaining host defense in the lungs.
