Research
Our pulmonology and sleep medicine specialists are dedicated to advancing the understanding of pediatric breathing, lung and sleep disorders. They actively contribute to international research, clinical trials and organizations, and they present at conferences and teaching seminars. Many of our doctors serve on committees that help establish national clinical care guidelines.
Children who come to us receive evidence-based care and may be able to try promising new therapies still in clinical trial development.
Our Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine Research Interests
Our experts conduct research at The Saban Research Institute of CHLA, as well as in partnership with national and international organizations and consortia. Many of our pulmonologists serve as principal investigators of national multicenter studies. Some of our team’s published research findings are now landmark studies in pulmonology and sleep medicine.
Our team’s research interests include:
- Advancing infant chronic lung disease research through membership in the Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) Collaborative
- Finding alternative modulator drug and gene therapies for children with cystic fibrosis, through our standing as one of the earliest members of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Therapeutics Development Network (TDN)
- Improving the diagnosis and treatment of aerodigestive disorders by maintaining a patient database for research purposes and active participation in the international Aerodigestive Society
- Managing sleep-related breathing disorders in children who have Down syndrome, obesity and autism
- Preventing and treating airway and lung infections
