Imaging and multi-omics analyses to identify molecular subtypes of distinct emphysema patterns
Role Description: This study aims to find new biomarkers that can predict the early onset of emphysema, distinguish between its diverse pathologic patterns, and provide insights into the underlying pathobiology.

Clinical significance and genetic determinants of novel imaging measures of emphysema distribution in 9,743 smokers
Role Description: This project will identify novel imaging biomarkers of the regional distribution of centrilobular, panlobular, and paraseptal emphysema with emphasis on their association to clinically relevant COPD-related outcomes, their genetic determinants, and their ability to improve prediction of COPD progression, above and beyond that provided by the traditional clinical, radiographic, and genetic features. The findings from this project will facilitate the early identification of COPD subjects at risk for rapid disease progression for more efficient COPD clinical trials and development of personalized and improved therapeutic strategies.
Role: Principal Investigator
