Pulmonary research focuses on studying the respiratory system, including the lungs and airways, to better understand lung diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and lung cancer. Researchers in this area may investigate the causes, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of these conditions, as well as explore new therapeutic approaches, medications, and technologies to improve lung health and function. Pulmonary research also involves studying the impact of environmental factors, genetics, and lifestyle choices on lung health, as well as developing strategies for disease prevention and management.
