UR Medicine serves a diverse 1.2 million population of the greater Rochester region. URMC has a stellar record in medical research, placing it in the top 26th percentile of U.S. medical centers in federal research funding.

Since its inception in 1968, University of Rochester’s Pulmonary and Critical Care division has been a regional resource for patients with complex lung diseases. The Division houses a highly collaborative group of investigators engaged in clinical and basic research. Areas of interest include the health effects of air pollution, asthma, lung immunology, pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, respiratory viral infections, sepsis, and critical illness. Our severe asthma program is located at the Mary Parkes Center for Asthma, Allergy & Pulmonary Care, a state-of-the-art facility established in 1995. The asthma center offers cutting edge diagnostic and treatment services with a goal to provide personalized treatment for each patient.
