Asthma Research

Asthma is the most common chronic disease of children in the U.S. It inflames and narrows breathing airways and, if untreated, can kill. Asthma tends to run in families, but environmental factors like pollen and pollution also trigger it. Research looks for ways to improve treatment today and prevent asthma in the future.
