Lung biology is the study of the structure, function, and diseases of the lungs. This research area focuses on understanding how the lungs work, how they interact with other organs in the body, and how various diseases and conditions affect respiratory health. Researchers in this field investigate topics such as lung development, gas exchange, inflammation, immune responses in the lungs, and the impact of environmental factors on respiratory health. By studying lung biology, researchers aim to improve our understanding of respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and lung cancer, and to develop new treatments and interventions to improve respiratory health.
