Using cell-based platforms that he has created, he will define the functional and molecular roles of previously understudied genes within multiciliated cells. This specialized cell type has been implicated in a variety of both common (COPD, IPF) and rare disease (PCD) states, and Andrew\u2019s work will increase the field&#8217;s understanding to hopefully one day bring better therapeutic options to our patients.<img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/pulmonarycenter\/files\/2026\/07\/Picture1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"381\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5655 \" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bumc.bu.edu\/pulmonarycenter\/files\/2026\/07\/Picture1.png 680w, https:\/\/www.bumc.bu.edu\/pulmonarycenter\/files\/2026\/07\/Picture1-534x636.png 534w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations to Andrew Berical who has been awarded a K08 Career Development Award from the NIH titled &#8220;Define the mechanisms through which STK33 regulates multiciliated cells&#8221; to study how multiciliated cells develop.
