He is also a physician scientist whose research focuses on understanding the immunobiology of hyperoxic lung injury.  He is supported by Career Development Award (K08) from National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.  During this line of research, Dr. Hanidziar established that the evolution of hyperoxic lung injury is immune cell-dependent. Methods to therapeutically suppress tissue-destructive elements (e.g., NKT cells) and enhance tissue-protective elements (e.g., B cells) in lung injury are currently tested in the laboratory.
