Dr. Jablonski’s research focus is the clinical care of patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and those undergoing lung transplantation. She aims to impact the growing recognition of frailty in patients with chronic pulmonary disease by working to better define and identify the frail phenotype in patients with ILD and those undergoing transplant evaluation. In addition to the physical description of frailty, she is interested in working to define a biologic signature of frailty and evaluate if aspects of either the physical or biologic phenotype are modifiable with treatment of the underlying fibrotic lung disease, physical rehabilitation, or lung transplantation. Her long-term objective is to define a biologic signature that would help predict response to the costly and often poorly tolerated immunosuppressive and anti-fibrotic therapies employed for the treatment of ILD, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
