Background
Dr. Hoyle received a B.A. from Johns Hopkins University in 1982 and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from Duke University in 1988. He engaged in postdoctoral training at the University of Pennsylvania from 1988-1993 and joined the faculty of Tulane University in the Pulmonary Section of the Department of Medicine in 1993. Dr. Hoyle joined the department of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences at the University of Louisville in 2007. Dr. Hoyle’s research interests are focused on understanding how inhaled agents that are encountered in the environment or in occupational settings injure the lung and how the lung is repaired after injury. An understanding of mechanisms underlying lung injury and repair has the potential to lead to novel treatments for pulmonary disorders. Dr. Hoyle has studied mechanisms of lung injury induced by a variety of inhaled agents, including chlorine, ozone, isocyanates, asbestos, silica, bleomycin, allergens, cigarette smoke, and ambient particulate matter.
