About UsJesse P. Joad, M.D.
|
Clinical/Research InterestsJesse P. Joad is trained in lung pharmacology and specializes in the effects of secondhand smoke on children's lungs. Her research interests include the effects of ozone and environmental tobacco smoke on the development of asthma, and how nerves control the lung. She is also investigating detrimental effects of secondhand smoke before and after birth on pediatric lung airways. |
