AboutAbout the lab
So that patients can live longer, as themselves
The Respiratory and Circulatory Innovative Research Lab is an endowed division established in 2020 to study diseases of the blood vessels and blood flow in the lungs (pulmonary circulatory diseases).
Focusing mainly on pulmonary hypertension, which the Department of Respiratory Medicine has long treated and studied, its mission is to develop those results further.
The lab also provides care and conducts research on diseases that involve both breathing and circulation, such as sarcoidosis.
