Interests Dr. DiMango's
clinical research includes treatment and management of patients with
obstructive airways disease (COPD and asthma). She is a member of the
National Emphysema Treatment Trial (NETT). Her other interest include caring
for patients with pulmonary complications related to cancer and its
treatment. Education and Training B.A. New York University,
