Personal Statement
Clinical Interests:
Dr. Cannon is a physician-scientist with over 15 years of experience caring for children with lung disease, particularly lung disease related to cystic fibrosis. She has served as the director of pediatric Cystic Fibrosis Centers at two hospitals and initiated the Cystic Fibrosis Therapeutic Development Center in one hospital participating as the site principle investigator for clnical trials.
Research Interests:
Dr. Cannon’s research focuses on the development of aerosolized formulations, including nanoparticle formulations, of novel antimicrobials to treat lung infections in patients with cystic fibrosis. For example, she has served as a Project Leader for an NHLIBI funded Program of Excellence in Nanotechnology (PEN). The project focused on development of nanoparticle delivery devices to treat Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infections.
