Research Summary

My interest since attending residency at the New York University Langone Health Internal Medicine Residency has been on the study of the lung microbiome. I am a physician-scientist with an interest in the host-microbiota interactions among patients and research participants who develop a lower respiratory tract infection. I leverage the use of lower airway samples in human and mice to study how the lung microbiome interactions alter host susceptibility to lower airway infection. I perform my research at the NYU Translational Lung Biology Laboratory lead by Dr. Leopoldo N. Segal.
