Bio/Research

Harvey Coxson is an Assistant Professor of Radiology at the University of British Columbia and Vancouver General Hospital as well as a Principal Investigator at the James Hogg iCAPTURE Centre in Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Research at St Paul’s Hospital. Dr Coxson trained with Dr James Hogg at UBC in quantitative pathology and now specializes in quantitative computed tomography of the lung with correlations to quantitative pathology and pulmonary function in smoking related diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Dr Coxson works in collaboration with Drs Peter Parй, James Hogg, Don Sin, Nestor Mьller and John Mayo at UBC as well as Drs Frank Sciurba and Ken Leader at the University of Pittsburgh to validate methods to phenotype subjects with COPD. Dr Coxson is also actively studying a group of smoking subjects that are receiving regular CT scans as part of a BC Cancer Agency program headed by Dr Stephen Lam, Dr Annette McWilliams and Dr John Mayo to follow their lung health. Collaborations are also in place with Dr Robert Levy in the BC Transplant Society to study the development of lung dysfunction following transplantation, and with Dr. Laird Birmingham at the British Columbia Eating Disorders Clinic to study the effects of malnutrition on lung structure and function.
