CEDAR RAPIDS - You've probably heard of COPD before. It stands for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and it's a lung disease that makes it hard to breath.

Watch the video to see Dr. Karl Thomas from University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics on the KCRG-TV9 News at Midday to talk about some studies going on at UIHC.
