IPF SCOR

Program Director - Galen B. Toews , M.D .
Program Coordinator - Mary A. Malec

The University of Michigan has been funded by the National Institutes of Health to further our understanding of the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and sarcoidosis . A clearer understanding of the pathogenesis of these diseases is required to develop new treatment strategies. Our web page on pulmonary fibrosis provides more detailed information on this disease.

To further your understanding of the various lung diseases and pulmonary diseases, as well as information about our clinics at the University of Michigan , you can click below to go to our Patient Care Programs page.
