Horiana Grosu

Horiana Grosu is a Professor at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, specializing in thoracic oncology and interventional pulmonology. Her research focuses on the diagnostic evaluation of pleural effusions, including pleural fluid biomarker analysis for molecular characterization of lung cancer, and the optimization of robotic bronchoscopy techniques to prevent atelectasis. Recent work includes actigraphy-based assessments of physical activity in pleural disease patients and the application of statistical surgical process modeling to bronchoscopy workflows. She has contributed to understanding pulmonary tumor thrombotic microangiopathy and the role of endobronchial ultrasonography in lymphoma diagnosis, with publications in CHEST Journal and the Journal of Thoracic Disease.
