He has authored over 200 publications and has ongoing research interests in definition of chronic lung allograft dysfunction phenotypes, definition of the translational aspects of the respiratory virome, therapeutic strategies for community acquired respiratory viral infections in the immune suppressed host, pathogenesis and management of antibody mediated lung allograft rejection, and innovative antifibroproliferative therapies for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
