Leadership and Faculty

The faculty consists of dedicated, board-certified physicians in pulmonary, critical care, sleep, and neuro-critical care medicine with strong interests in teaching and clinical research.  They are dedicated to the goal of providing a comprehensive educational environment that fosters the professional development of fellows, thereby enabling them to become proficient pulmonary critical physicians. 

While the faculty believes that clinical experience is the principal foundation of education, they also believe that a significant portion of the fellow’s education is achieved through lectures, conferences, teaching rounds, research, and a sophisticated understanding of the primary literature.
