Pediatric Center for Pulmonary and Vascular Biology

The Pediatric Center for Pulmonary and Vascular Biology (PVB) provides a programmatic research home for pediatric faculty and trainees pursuing basic research in pulmonary biology and vascular biology.

The Center’s mission is to expand the basic understanding of lung and vascular diseases, striving to gain new knowledge that will ultimately lead to new diagnostic, prophylactic, and therapeutic strategies.

Within the context of lung and vascular diseases, the Center focuses on lung and vascular development and responses to inflammation and injury. We unite basic scientists and physician-scientists from four pediatric divisions, working in partnership.
