Ratko Djukanović's research has made significant contributions to the fields of respiratory medicine, immunology, and clinical science. Studies published on radiomultiomics and proteomic signatures have identified quantitative clusters associated with severe asthma, shedding light on mechanistic subtypes of disease and potential biomarkers for treatment. Additionally, work on COVID-19 research, accelerated immune aging, and hemoglobin variations has elucidated factors influencing disease severity and recovery. Research on asthma innovations, lipid composition, and eicosanoids has also provided valuable insights into diagnosis, management, and personalized treatments. These findings have far-reaching implications for improving patient outcomes and informing clinical practice guidelines, benefiting individuals with respiratory conditions and the broader medical community.
