Brenda F. Reader's research focuses on lung biology, particularly the mechanisms of lung aging, lung transplant outcomes, and pulmonary fibrosis (a condition where lung tissue becomes scarred and stiff). The work combines microbiology (studying bacterial communities in transplanted lungs), cell biology (examining protein changes in scarred lung tissue), and clinical outcomes research related to organ transplantation and respiratory disease.
