  • "Isolated abnormal FEF75% detects unsuspected bronchiolar obstruction in CF children," 2023, published in Pediatric Research

Their research has been disseminated across several publication venues, notably:

  • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases Journal of the COPD Foundation
  • Annals of Allergy Asthma & Immunology
  • Pediatric Research

Frequent collaborators include Arthur F. Gelb, Alfred Yamamoto, Eric Verbeken, Donald P. Tashkin, and James C. Hogg, indicating engagement with a network of researchers specializing in respiratory and pulmonary medicine.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

For those interested in medicine but exploring flexible pathways, online degrees offer diverse options. If you’re a registered nurse looking to advance your education affordably, consider some of the cheapest online bsn programs. These programs provide a budget-friendly route for furthering your nursing career while balancing work and studies.

If you have a non-nursing background, online direct entry msn programs for non-nurses allow you to transition into advanced nursing roles efficiently. These accelerated degrees are designed to quickly prepare graduates for the demands of the healthcare field.

Those seeking accessible entry points should explore what is the easiest nursing school to get into. These schools can be an excellent starting place for launching a healthcare career with fewer admission barriers.

Not all healthcare careers require hands-on clinical work. Allied health programs, like medical billing and coding schools that accept financial aid, provide critical administrative training and offer financial support, making them accessible to more students.
