A study of the genetics of pulmonary fibrosis

This study plans to learn more about pulmonary fibrosis and determine if some diseases that cause scarring in the lung might be inherited diseases. We are especially interested in the genetics of pulmonary fibrosis and cases where it might run in families. What we learn may be helpful in the future to people with pulmonary fibrosis and their family members.
