About this episode

Dr. Mark Mallozzi discusses his research on airborne particles that may trigger sarcoidosis.

Dr. Mark Mallozzi at National Jewish Health in Denver is examining the airborne particles or "particulate matter" that may play a role in triggering sarcoidosis. In this episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter Podcast, Dr. Mallozzi details some of the things in the air that we have no idea we are breathing. He looks at the evidence from the dust at 9-11, to burn pits for veterans to smoke from wildfires -- places where cases of sarcoidosis tend to spike.
