Gregory Tino, MD, is a board-certified physician in internal medicine, pulmonary diseases, and critical care medicine. He is currently
an associate professor of medicine and the director of Pulmonary Outpatient Practices in the Pulmonary, Allergy and Critical Care Division

been an important aspect of Dr. Tino's role as a physician and a professor. But his drive to advance research, education, and
effective treatment for pulmonary fibrosis grew tremendously when he lost his father to the debilitating lung disorder in 1991.
Dr. Tino is an active clinician who is dedicated to teaching and participating in clinical research activities. He has authored a number
of original articles and book chapters on various topics in pulmonary and critical care medicine. He serves as a co-investigator
on a multicenter trial evaluating the efficacy of interferon gamma-1b in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, as well as a
multicenter study of lung volume reduction surgery for emphysema, sponsored by the National Institutes of Health. He is a fellow of the
American College of Chest Physicians as well as a member of the American Thoracic Society and the American College of Physicians.
He holds a bachelor of arts degree in biology and political science from Columbia University and a medical degree from Mount Sinai
School of Medicine in New York. His outstanding achievements in medicine are noted by his presence on the list of "America's Top
Doctors of Pulmonology" in the Castle Connolly Guide and "Top Docs for the Aging and Pulmonary Medicine" in Philadelphia Magazine.
Additionally, Dr. Tino has received several noteworthy teaching awards from the University of Pennsylvania, including the Robert
Dunning Dripps Memorial Award for "Excellence in Graduate Medical Education."
