Biography
Michael Konstan attended Case Western Reserve University in 1978 and received his B.A. in Biology, and afterwards his M.D. in 1982. He worked in Dr. Thomas Boats labs in the School of Medicine and then joined the State University of New York as a Clinical Assistant Instructor until 1985. Returning to Case, Dr. Konstan worked as a fellow in Pediatric Pulmonary. He became an Assistant Professor in 1988. Dr. Konstan is Co Director of the Cystic Fibrosos Center and also Director of Pediatric Bronchoscopy Laboratory at Rainbows and Childrens Hospital. In 1996 he became an Associate Professor. Dr. Konstan is now Director of the Cystic Fibrosis Therapeutics Development Center at Case and Co-Medical Director of the Pulmonary Function Laboratory at Rainbow Babies and Childrens Hospital.
Research Interests
To be completed by Dr. Konstan.
