Research group(s)

Research interests

My research focuses are clinical trials in critical care medicine, acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome and the renin-angiotensin-system in critical illness and the perioperative period. Currently, my research group is participating in the multicenter phase IIb trial on AP301/solnatide as inhalation therapy for ARDS.
