Ruxolitinib After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT)

This study is enrolling people who have developed lung problems (called Bronchiolitis Obliterans or BO) after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT).

LEOPARDS Linking Endotypes and Outcomes in Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

The study goal is to risk stratify pediatric (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome) ARDS patients and to identify sub-phenotypes with shared biology in order to appropriately target therapies in future trials.

Do Circadian Rhythms Affect Lung Repair and Regeneration After Injury?
CHOP researchers discover a link between circadian cycles and lung repair and regeneration.

Sengupta Laboratory

Sengupta Lab

The two areas of investigation in the Sengupta Lab are determining the mechanisms of the circadian regulation of lung inflammation, injury and repair/regeneration; and effect of early life exposures on the development (or maldevelopment) and function of pulmonary circadian networks in adulthood.

Shaon Sengupta, MBBS, MPH
Shaon Sengupta

Dr. Sengupta is a neonatologist and physician scientist with a long-standing interest in lung health. She studies the mechanisms of circadian regulation of lung inflammation, injury, and repair; and the effect of early life exposures on development and function of pulmonary circadian networks in adulthood.
