Dr. Cacho's research aims to improve the health of children with respiratory diseases, particularly asthma. His earlier studies explored how environmental factors contribute to the development and severity of respiratory illnesses in children. Currently, he focuses on identifying specific asthma subtypes, known as clinically relevant phenotypes. By understanding these subtypes, his work seeks to inform more precise prevention strategies and tailored treatments for pediatric asthma. Through his efforts, Dr. Cacho hopes to advance care for children with respiratory conditions and improve outcomes for those affected by asthma and related illnesses.
