Daniel Wallman, MD
Assistant Professor, Medicine

Biography
Daniel J. Wallman MD is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Pulmonary, Allergy, Sleep and Critical Care division. His clinical specialty is Pleural Diseases for which he attends on the consult service at Boston Medical Center. He also attends in the medical intensive care unit and performs bronchoscopies.
His research is focused on monogenic airway diseases, such as primary ciliary dyskinesia, using the basal cell – the stem cell of the airway epithelium. As a faculty member of the Hawkins lab at the Center for Regenerative Medicine, he uses advanced gene editing techniques in the induced basal cell to interrogate gene function, develop genotype-to-phenotype assessments of genetic variants and recapitulate monogenic airway diseases both in vitro and in vivo.
