ARCN – Airway Research Center North
Using a novel, integrative approach we bring together basic and clinical research in order to achieve progress in prevention as well as diagnostic and therapeutic practice of lung diseases. Especially the close cooperation with the other sites of the DZL yields in scientific and medical progress.
In ARCN we focus our studies on the following areas:

- Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (COPD) and
- Lung Cancer
Moreover we work on:
- Pulmonary Hypertension
- Acute Lung Injury and Pneumonia

The areas are linked by two platforms:
