Expertise: This research program is aimed at developing an in-depth knowledge of the movement of chloride across cells lining the airway. Proteins called channels allow the movement of chloride out of cells and onto the airway surface. The chloride pulls water with it, thus properly hydrating the airway and protecting it against infection.
