Research

My research involves risk assessment methods in pulmonary arterial hypertension and acute pulmonary embolism as well as patient-oriented research in pulmonary hypertension. I have an interest in novel clinical trial endpoints and trial design including adaptive and platform trials. Since 2020 I have also been engaged in clinical research on COVID-19 including evaluation of awake prone positioning and studying physiologic mechanisms of dyspnea in Long Covid.
