Dr. Charles Frevert is an Associate Professor in the Department of Comparative Medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine. He received the DVM degree from Iowa State University and a Doctor of Science Degree (Sc.D.) from Harvard School of Public Health. Dr Frevert is trained in veterinary internal medicine and comparative pathology with expertise in lung pathology. Research in his laboratory focuses on the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate the innate immune system and the mechanisms that are responsible for the successful clearance of bacteria and viruses from the lungs. This includes research to determine the role that proteoglycans and their associated glycosaminoglycans play in the innate immune response to lung infection. He has considerable experience in the use of animal models to study lung infection, lung injury, and sepsis. His interests also include diagnostic pathology and teaching. He is the Co-Director of the Comparative Pathology Program and also directs the Histology and Imaging Core at South Lake Union. Dr. Frevert has extensive experience with the use of immunohistochemistry and imaging to understand molecular and cellular processes and uses these techniques in his own research and through his work in the Histology and Imaging Core.
