Firefighter lung health study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how firefighting affects your lungs over time. By tracking your health and exposures, researchers hope to find ways to prevent lung problems in firefighters.

This study compares the lungs of people with airway disease to healthy volunteers to understand inflammation and lung function. You may be eligible if you have airway disease or are a healthy adult.
This study looks at how breathing wildfire smoke affects healthy adults. It may help understand who is at risk and how to protect communities during wildfire season.
This study follows people with moderate-to-severe asthma and repeatedly checks how their lungs and symptoms relate to environmental exposures over time. It may help researchers better understand what triggers asthma and how exposures affect asthma control.
This study looks at airway samples from people with asthma and healthy volunteers. It helps researchers understand what causes airway problems and could lead to better treatments.
This study looks at how environmental fungi (mold) affect lung function and asthma. Researchers need healthy volunteers without lung disease to compare results.
This study is looking at how mucus builds up in the airways of people with asthma, COPD, or chronic cough. Researchers will also compare findings to healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand these conditions and find new ways to help.
