Jose Gomez Villalobos is an Associate Professor of Medicine in the Department of Pulmonary, Critical Care & Sleep Medicine at Yale School of Medicine, with affiliations to the Yale Institute for Global Health. He holds an MD from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana and an MS in Computational Biology and Bioinformatics from Yale University. His research focuses on understanding pulmonary diseases through high-throughput technologies and computational methods, particularly in asthma, COPD, and lung fibrosis. Key areas include genomic and transcriptomic profiling, immune mechanisms, and translational approaches to identify therapeutic targets.
Research interests span computational biology, genomics, and precision medicine applications in respiratory diseases. Notable collaborations include work with Naftali Kaminski, Geoffrey Chupp, and Maor Sauler. He has developed methodologies for single-cell RNA sequencing, machine learning prediction of hospital readmissions, and biomarker discovery for asthma subtypes.
His work integrates clinical phenotyping with advanced data science, emphasizing interdisciplinary approaches. Awards include Fellow of the American Thoracic Society (2019) and recognition for excellence in residency training (2005). The Gomez Lab collaborates widely on projects such as the Center for Precision Pulmonary Medicine (P2MED) and the Winchester Center for Lung Disease.
Recent studies highlight contributions to understanding CD38-driven fibrosis, CFTR modulator effects, and immune profiling in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. His clinical expertise includes pulmonology and critical care, with a focus on improving patient outcomes through innovative diagnostics and therapies.
