About
Juan P. Wisnivesky is a leading pulmonary researcher whose work bridges clinical outcomes, patient-centered care, and health disparities in respiratory medicine. His research primarily focuses on lung cancer treatment, asthma management, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), with a particular emphasis on how treatment decisions affect patients' quality of life. A landmark contribution is his investigation of patient-reported outcomes after early-stage lung cancer treatment, comparing sublobar resection and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)—work that has garnered significant attention for its focus on what matters most to patients. His studies have been cited over 9,000 times, reflecting his influence on clinical guidelines and practice. Beyond lung cancer, Wisnivesky has advanced understanding of asthma in minority populations and the long-term effects of COPD treatments. He has also contributed to COVID-19 research, examining outcomes in vulnerable groups. As a professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, he has mentored numerous young investigators and received multiple NIH grants, cementing his reputation as a researcher who translates rigorous evidence into real-world improvements in respiratory care.
