EDUCATION AND TRAINING B.S. in Biomedical Engineering, Duke University, Durham, NC, 1979. M.A. in Computer Science, Duke University, Durham, NC, 1980. M.D., University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA, 1984. Internship in Internal Medicine, Duke University, Durham, NC, 1985. Residency in Internal Medicine, Duke University, Durham, NC, 1987. Fellowship in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, 1991. Guggenheim Fellowship Karolinska Institute Stockholm, Sweden, 1999-2000		CURRENT RESEARCH INTERESTS Interests are descriptors, models, and mechanisms of pulmonary perfusion and ventilation heterogeneity with respect to both spatial and temporal distributions. Now focusing on mechanisms of isogravitational and temporal perfusion and ventilation heterogeneity. Future plans are to elucidate some of the mechanisms responsible for matching of ventilation and perfusion. Clinical research interest are in exercise physiology and testing.
