About
After completing her FRACP in Respiratory and Sleep Medicine in 2015, Dr Adelle Jee commenced her career in clinical research with a PhD at the University of Sydney and Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. Dr Jee’s project aimed to characterise patients who fit proposed criteria for “Idiopathic Pneumonia with Autoimmune Features” (IPAF) and investigate the role of traditional and novel diagnostic techniques for connective tissue disease associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD).
Dr Jee’s motivation to pursue clinical research was shaped by her real-life experience and many unanswered questions faced when managing patients with ILD. Although her main research focus is on interstitial lung disease, particularly of an idiopathic and autoimmune aetiology, she also has interests in the clinical management of patients with general respiratory and sleep disorders.
