Our overall focus has been on understanding the pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of inflammatory and immunology lung injury. In particular, we are improving our understanding of the immunopathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Another aim is to develop and evaluate methods that can serially identify the presence and extent of disease activity in these patients. With support from the Department of Medicine, we have developed an Interstitial Lung Disease Center of Excellence.
Dr. King’s bibliography comprises hundreds of publications including peer-reviewed journal articles; book chapters, review, editorials; books, monographs, and abstracts. Please visit PubMed for entire list.
