The Respiratory Environmental Health team conducts research in early life determinants of lung growth and development, respiratory environmental health, and mechanisms of airway dysfunction in asthma and other respiratory disease.
Biodiesel is a generic term for fuel that can be made from virtually any plant or animal oil via transesterification of triglycerides with an alcohol...
Electronic cigarettes (ECs) have been rapidly gaining ground on conventional cigarettes due to their efficiency in ceasing or reducing tobacco consumption,...
Ventilated preterm infant lungs are vulnerable to overdistension and underinflation.
Immunological homeostasis in the respiratory tract is thought to require balanced interactions between networks of dendritic cell (DC) subsets in lung...
In this study, we compared the physiological consequences of short-term exposure to diesel exhaust via inhalation to those due to exposure to the same diesel...
In this study, we combined human-rhinovirus infection with a clinically relevant mouse model of aero-allergen exposure using house-dust-mite in an attempt to...
Mineral dusts in the occupational setting are associated with poor lung health, however very little is known about the impact of heterogeneous community...
It is therefore clear that gavage can have significant impacts on experimental animals in terms of their stress response and overall morbidity and mortality
We propose that mechanical abnormalities of the airway wall acquired through disrupted fetal growth impact susceptibility to disease
