Asthma and COPD are common obstructive lung diseases that affect a large portion of the population. Although they share similar symptoms, their underlying pathophysiology differs, requiring distinct treatment strategies. Advances in biologic therapies underscore the importance of pulmonologists having a deeper understanding of lung immunobiology. This ATS Ed+ module is designed to address knowledge gaps in immunology, helping pulmonologists use biologics more effectively in clinical practice.

Since 2004, the ATS has invested over $26M to support 443 research grants. In 2025, the ATS funded 16 grants totaling over $1.2M, a 46% funding increase from 2024.

According to Elizabeth Redente, PhD, ATSF, winner of the ATS Foundation Early Career Investigator Award in 2013 and the ATS-RCMB Jo Rae Wright Award for Outstanding Science in 2019: "The ATS grants are reviewed by peers in the field, so when you receive feedback, you see that they have faith in you as an individual, as a scientist, and that you have what it takes, it's very impactful."

Your donation today will help protect the progress we have already achieved—and accelerate the next generation of innovations that will change the course of respiratory health worldwide and help patients who need it most. Every dollar advances lifesaving research to prevent, treat, and cure respiratory disease.
