Clinical/Research Interests: At the clinical level, Dr. Finkbeiner studies pulmonary pathology and lung transplant physiology. He also explores chronic lung rejection following transplant/grafts and evaluates effects of low-level environmental pollutants on airways. The recipient of several teaching awards, he is developing an autopsy manual of procedures and diagnostic techniques for pathologists-in-training. Dr. Finkbeiner’s research specializes in cystic fibrosis and looks at lung, trachea and bronchial passage function at the cellular level. His work includes biochemical and genetic investigations of respiratory secretions to determine how cells multiply, survive and mutate to impact health and illness.
