Summary

To characterize stem cell compartments in their niches in different clinical situations (non-diseased compared to emphysematous and fibrotic pulmonary tissue) and to assess their proliferative and developmental properties in vitro.

To further implement lung organoid culture system in the drug screening and development of patient personalized medicine.
