Benjamin Kopp MD/MPH is an Associate Professor at Emory University, Director of the Pulmonary Sickle Cell Program and Director of Pulmonary and Sleep Physician Research at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Co-Director of the Cystic Fibrosis and Airway Disease (CF-AIR) Research Center, and Co-Director of the Pediatric Residency Investigative Scholars at Emory (PRISE). Dr. Kopp’s NIH- and CFF-funded research program focuses on innate immune regulation of chronic lung disease in children with CF and sickle cell. An emerging arm of this research includes how environmental health equity influences chronic immune dysregulation and inflammation. The lab uses human translational models to study basic mechanisms and test therapeutics. Dr. Kopp’s advocacy and public health efforts center on increasing care for underserved populations and policies to prevent environmental impacts on respiratory health. Dr. Kopp graduated from Ohio State University School of Medicine and received his MPH from Ohio State University College of Public Health. He completed pediatrics residency and a pediatric pulmonology fellowship at Nationwide Children’s Hospital.
