Goal 3: Advance Translational Research
Using "omics" technologies to define responders to drug therapies
Metabolomic and proteomic technologies open tremendous avenues to define at the systemic level and, in the case of the lung, the organ level response to drug and non-drug interventions. The concept of responders and non-responders to therapies is poorly defined and hampers development of biomarkers and appropriate animal models. Omics technologies can bridge these important areas. In lung disease, breath analysis could be a major component.
