The lower respiratory tract refers to the part of the respiratory system that includes the trachea, bronchi, and lungs. Research in this area focuses on investigating various respiratory conditions and diseases that affect these organs, such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and lung cancer. Researchers study the underlying mechanisms of these diseases, develop new diagnostic tools and treatment strategies, and explore ways to improve lung health and function. The goal of research in the lower respiratory tract is to better understand and manage respiratory diseases, ultimately improving the health outcomes and quality of life for individuals affected by these conditions.
