About me

Introduction	My major interests are in diagnostic and experimental lung pathology. As the lead thoracic pathologist at Yale 2004-2022, I have experience in diagnosing and classifying the full range of histopathology of lung disease. For many years, I worked on various murine models of inflammatory lung disease, ran an NIH funded morphology core for the Yale pulmonary section and ran a laboratory at West Haven VA looking at murine models of pulmonary fibrosis. I now still consult on various experimental models of lung disease and work with collaborators analyzing human fibrotic and neoplastic disease. I am heavily involved in medical school curriculum development as Director of Medical Studies for Pathology and Co-Director of one of the pre-clinical master courses, Attacks and Defenses (immunology / infectious disease / microbiology / rheumatology / dermatology) I was Director of Anatomic Pathology at VA Connecticut HealthCare System (aka West Haven VA) 1994-2022.
