RESEARCH INTERESTS:

The Burn and Wound Research Program at the University of Florida provides a clinical patient base to permit the identification and resolution of clinical problems that may be solved through basic and applied research. This program integrates the activities of the Surgical Metabolism Laboratory and the Wound Healing Research Laboratory at the University. The research efforts concentrate on characterizing the immune suppression that follows burn injury, and on the mechanisms to better understand and enhance wound healing in patients with burns and other wounds. The development of new technology is supported by our inclusion in multicenter, industry-sponsored research. Participation in these trials permits access to the most current wound care technologies, and has supported the initiation of investigator-initiated protocols as well.

The research fellows in burns and trauma have supported this mission resulting in publications and presentations in the area of immune dysfunction following burns. The initiation of the T32-NIH training grant in burns and trauma is also integral to this research program and the current fellow is concentrating on the wound healing aspects of our core programs.

The development of this research program has provided a reputable foundation on which the University of Florida Burn Center and affiliated basic science laboratories were selected for inclusion in a Large Scale Collaborative Research Program being approved for funding by the National Institutes of Health. This multicenter research effort utilizes the clinical population and laboratory capabilities of only six major burn centers in the country.

In addition to these local activities, the burn research program has cooperated with multicenter studies organized through the Multi-Institutional Trials Committee of the American Burn Association. We have collaborated on two multicenter reviews of uncommon problems admitted to burn centers, namely toxic epidermal necrolysis syndrome and purpura fulminans.
