    Dr. Zha is a Pulmonary and Critical Care physician scientist. She specializes in the care of patients with bronchiectasis and nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary infections. She cofounded the Bronchiectasis and Pulmonary NTM Clinic at UCSF and attends in the Parnassus intensive care units. In addition, Dr. Zha conducts basic science research that focuses on understanding the innate immune response to mycobacterial infections.

    Diversity and function of mononuclear phagocytes in the lung driven by mycobacterium tuberculosis infection
    NHLBI 1K08HL163405Apr 30, 2022 - Apr 30, 2027
    Role: Principal Investigator
    Description: Project Narrative Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) causes over a million deaths worldwide each year. Despite decades of research, basic understanding of the early interaction of the bacteria and the immune system remains lacking which has impeded treatment options and a lasting effective vaccine. This project aims to describe in detail the immune cells involved in early infection, and which subtypes allow for MTB to grow most effectively, providing direct targets for therapeutic development.

    Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication.
