Dr. Wilson has a long-standing interest and expertise in studies of matrix biology in health and disease, with an emphasis on lung injury and fibrosis over the past decade. Her current focus is on stromal cells, including fibroblasts and pericytes, as key effector cells in lung inflammation and fibrosis. Her major interest lies in understanding the reciprocal interactions and signaling mechanisms between fibrillar and basement membrane matrices and mesenchymal cells.
