Research Interest
Dr. Bon’s academic and research interests focus on the clinical translational investigation of clinical and molecular phenotypes and disease progression in COPD. Her research concentrates on the role of inflammation and immune mechanisms in lung disease progression and musculoskeletal comorbidities, with the goal of identifying targets for precision therapy in COPD.
Clinical Interest
Dr. Bon’s clinical interests are focused on the management and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In her outpatient pulmonary practice, she evaluates patients for lung volume reduction surgery and manages patients with difficult to treat and severe COPD.
