Pulmonary Highlights National Jewish Health 2017 PULMONARY HIGHLIGHTS Clinical Expertise, Research and Education National Jewish Health® ® National Jewish Health acknowledges The Tuchman Family Foundation and Debra and Ken Tuchman for their generous gift to establish The Tuchman Family Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine. For more than 20 years, Debra and Ken Tuchman and the Tuchman Family have been committed to National Jewish Health through board service and as outstanding advocates for the institution. Dear Colleague, With great pleasure, we present National Jewish Health Pulmonary Highlights 2017, our annual compilation of clinical, research and educational capabilities in pulmonary medicine. At National Jewish Health, we solve hard problems. Patients come to us from around the nation — and the world — seeking answers. They have often spent years working with their physicians and experimenting with treatment options, only to have their conditions continue and sometimes worsen. Our team of expert pulmonologists conducts intensive evaluations in collaboration with cardiologists, gastroenterologists, allergists, oncologists, rheumatologists and others. Once we develop a diagnosis and treatment plan, we work with each patient’s hometown physicians to implement the plan. We are an academic medical institution that has focused on respiratory and related diseases for more than 119 years. We have one of the largest pulmonary divisions in the nation. This year we were named the #1 respiratory hospital in the nation by U.S. News & World Report in its 2017–2018 Best Hospitals rankings. Our dedicated faculty includes recognized national leaders in their fields, who continue to pass along their knowledge by training medical students, residents and postgraduate fellows in affiliation with the University of Colorado School of Medicine and through our robust, nationwide continuing medical education program. Our dynamic research program is continuously seeking answers to the many questions and challenges that remain in pulmonary medicine. Please take a few moments to review this publication and discover how the work we do here is vital to the advancement of pulmonary medicine, and how it improves treatment options available to you for your patients.

Hirsch, MD, PhD The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) protein is widely expressed in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). The gene is sometimes amplified, but it is often increased in copy number and, less frequently, mutated with activating mutations. EGFR-directed therapies include the reversible specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) gefitinib (Iressa®) and erlotinib (Tarceva®) and the monoclonal antibody cetuximab (Erbitux®). Also, more recently, irreversible pan-Her inhibitors were introduced into clinical trials. In unselected patients treated with EGFR inhibitors, a minority will achieve an objective Fred R.

    Philippa Marrack, PhD, FRS Conditions Treated: Research Areas: • Basic Immunology Programs & Services: • Department of Immunology and Genomic Medicine Research Interests Most of our work over the years has focused on T cells. T cells are amongst the cells which recognize that an infection is occurring in the body. They accomplish this in an unexpected way, by reacting with fragments of the infection bound to special proteins of the body, the MHC proteins. We are trying to find out how T cells learn to react in this way. We are also interested in the ways in which T cells are prevented from attacking MHC proteins bound to fragments of their own host. In most people such attack is efficiently avoided. However, in some individuals T cells do react in this way, and this event causes autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and juvenile diabetes. However we do also study B cells, in particular a previously under investigated type of B cell (ABC) we first found in elderly female mice, but which has also been found by others and ourselves in women and mice with autoimmune diseases and in mice and humans with various infections including SARS-CoV-2. In mice these cells are important producers of autoantibodies and antibodies that efficiently get rid of virus infections. However, although they can produce autoantibodies in humans, their significance in infections is not currently known.

  • Immunotherapy (Allergy Shots)
    Immunotherapy (Allergy Shots) Subcutanous immunotherapy (commonly called allergy shots) is a form of treatment to reduce your allergic reaction to allergens. Allergens are substances to which you are allergic. Remember, not all asthma is due to allergies. Research has shown allergy shots can reduce symptoms of: Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) grass, weed and tree pollen allergies Allergic asthma Dust mite allergy Animal dander allergy Insect sting allergy Allergy shots are less effective against molds and are not a useful method for the treatment of food allergy. Allergy shots consists of a series of injections (shots) with a solution containing the allergens that cause your symptoms. There are usually two phases: build-up and maintenance. Treatment build-up begins with a weak solution given once or twice a week. The strength of the solution is gradually increased with each dose. Once the strongest dosage is reached in a few months, the injections are slowly spaced apart until it reaches once a month. At this point, sensitivity to the allergens has been decreased, and a person has reached a maintenance level. Though not a cure for everyone, allergy sots can significantly reduce allergy symptoms in people who are unable to avoid allergens and who do not respond well to other medications. Allergy shots should always be given at your health care provider's office since there is a risk of a severe reaction. When Is immunotherapy recommended? If you are thinking of allergy shots, ask your health care provider about a referral to a board-certified allergist. A board-certified allergist will follow a number of steps to evaluate if allergy shots are right for you.

Candidates should be attracted to the opportunity to provide highly transformative leadership for the nation’s premier institution honoring exceptional American women who embody the National Women’s Hall of Fame mission of “Showcasing great women . Inspiring all”. The National Women’s Hall of Fame (NWHF/the Hall) is expanding in every way – in size, in reach, in influence. To better accommodate these ambitions, the NWHF rehabilitated the historic 1844 Seneca Knitting Mill located on the Seneca-Cayuga branch of the Erie Canal in Seneca Falls, NY, and moved into it in 2020. This extraordinary achievement was completed over nine years with 10 million dollars of funding. The NWHF is eager to embrace the opportunities enabled by this new, expansive space, including honoring the importance and sense of “place” that Seneca Falls and the Erie Canal system have played in the history of the economic, social, and human rights movements of the United States of America. Following this historic move, in this historic year celebrating the centennial of women’s suffrage, the National Women’s Hall of Fame now seeks a talented, proven leader dedicated to expanding the Hall’s national footprint, advancing its fundraising capacity, strengthening its organizational structure, and planning and implementing an ambitious agenda of new programs and exhibits.
