ATLAS – Airway, Trauma, Lung injury, and Sepsis Research
The ATLAS Research Program focuses on clinical trials and real-world data studies in the acute care setting with a particular focus on early interventions for critically ill and injured patients. Our recent work incudes studies of respiratory infections including COVID-19, respiratory failure, and sepsis. Our global collaborations include the ACTIV, PETAL, SIREN, PCCRG, and IVY research networks, with funding from the NIH, DoD, and CDC.
