At our research facilities, we undertake innovative research and conduct a broad range of studies aimed at advancing knowledge of pulmonary and sleep disorders.
By using modern technology to evaluate how our patients' lungs and hearts perform during exercise challenges, we expertly assess and monitor a variety of pulmonary conditions in our cardiopulmonary exercise testing labs.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), the third leading cause of death and second leading cause of disability in the United States, is one of our division's major areas of research.
We are committed to evaluating and managing patients with pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Our faculty actively participate in clinical research to find the most up-to-date methods of treating pulmonary hypertension patients.
Offers instrumentation and the technical expertise required to express and purify milligram quantities of soluble and membrane proteins for biophysical and structural characterization.
The Confocal Microscope and Flow Cytometry Facility (CMFCF) is a Dept. Pathology and Anatomical Sciences (PAS) service center serving the researchers in the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences as well as the scientists located on the South and North Campus’s at the University at Buffalo. We are part of the Health Sciences Collaborative Core Facilities and work closely with other PAS cores as well as the core facilities in the School of Dental Medicine to provide comprehensive and integrative services to solve the imaging and cytometry challenges presented by cutting-edge research programs. The imaging and cytometry instrumentation installed in the new Jacobs School of Medicine site are the latest, state of art flow cytometers and optical microscopes.
