Elizabeth Warner, M.D.  

 

RESEARCH INTERESTS:

Dr. Warner is currently a categorical PGY-4 general surgery resident and is a clinical research fellow under the direction of Dr. Lyle L. Moldawer in the Laboratory of Inflammation Biology and Surgical Science. Her research interests focus on the genomic and phenotypic transformation of neutrophils in Acute Lung Injury and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. Additionally, she is investigating the translation of a novel neutrophil isolation technique from blood samples to bronchoalveolar lavage specimens for genomic analysis. She plans to pursue a career in academic surgery when she completes general surgery residency in 2012.
