DESCRIPTION:The long-term respiratory health effects of wildfire smoke expo
 sure are not well understood. However\, it can be studied by examining its
  association with impaired respiratory health\, an intermediate phenotype 
 between ideal lung health and chronic lung disease. We found that wildfire
  smoke is associated with markers of impaired respiratory health\, includi
 ng blood biomarkers\, persistent respiratory symptoms\, and accelerated de
 cline in lung function\, suggesting potential long-term impact.\n\nPresent
 ed by Gabrielle Liu\, MD\, MS\, assistant professor of Medicine\, Universi
 ty of California\, Davis. This Translational Science Grand Rounds event is
  sponsored and organized by UR CTSI.\n\nLiu is an assistant professor of M
 edicine in the Division of Pulmonary\, Critical Care\, and Sleep Medicine 
 at the University of California\, Davis\, and the associate director of th
 eir Interstitial Lung Disease Program. Her research explores the risk fact
 ors and biomarkers associated with impaired respiratory health and the tra
 nsition to chronic lung disease. Her current work examines the association
  between wildfire smoke exposure and markers of impaired respiratory healt
 h. She is a KL2 scholar with the UC Davis Clinical and Translational Scien
 ce Center and is supported by the American Lung Association’s Public Hea
 lth and Public Policy Research Award.\n\nAccreditation\n\nThe University o
 f Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry is accredited by the Accredit
 ation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continui
 ng medical education for physicians.\n\nCertification\n\nThe University of
  Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry designates this live activity 
 for a maximum of 1.00 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians shoul
 d claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participatio
 n in the activity.
