Do you have any biobanks available for collaborative research?Yes
If yes, please provide more details or describe the biobanks available:

We have frozen human lung tissue and inflated whole lungs from asthmatic, COPD, and healthy donners.

Do you have any other equipment or resources available for collaborative research?Yes
If yes, please provide more details or describe the equipment and resources available:

Myographs for in vitro smooth muscle experiments, measuring muscle force, shortening, power, and stiffness. Plethysmograph for whole lung experiments, measuring lung elastance and resistance. The plethysmograph can be placed in a CT scanner to measure structural changes in the lungs while monitoring the changes in lung mechanics.
