I am an Associate Professor in Respiratory Science, within the Institute of Inflammation and Ageing at the University of Birmingham. My research focuses in respiratory inflammation mainly in the chronic setting (COPD, IPF) and particularly in smoking related disease. Recently my work has examined the impact of e-cigarettes on the innate immune response within the lung to determine how this differs from the effects of smoking and further, what the acute effects can help us determine about the long term consequences of vaping.
