Research Summary
My research focused on the hormonal regulation of fetal lung development using organ culture of fetal lung as the experimental model. I also was involved in clinical studies of surfactant replacement therapy, inhaled nitric oxide for pulmonary hypertension and circadian rhythm in premature neonates.
