Assistant Clinical Professor
Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine
Dr. Aaron Baugh is a pulmonary and critical care physician at UCSF who focuses on improving the care of asthma and COPD for low-income and racial/ethnic minority individuals. His research program emphasizes understanding how social disparities inform differences in lung function and worse outcomes in lung disease. In his free time, he enjoys kayaking and reading history.
