Specializations

Breast Cancer and Gastrointestinal Oncology

Clinical activity includes treatment strategies for hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer, as well as triple-negative breast cancer and HER2-positive disease. The oncology portfolio also extends to gastric cancer, gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and biliary tract cancer.

  • Metastatic breast cancer
  • Early breast cancer
  • Gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancer
  • Colorectal and pancreatic malignancies

Research interests also cover molecularly selected solid tumors and perioperative or advanced-stage cancer care within the oncology setting.

Hematologic Malignancies and Cell Therapy

The investigator is involved in studies of acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. This work also includes interest in myelodysplastic syndromes and other relapsed or refractory blood cancers.

  • Acute leukemias
  • Lymphoid malignancies
  • Plasma cell disorders
  • Gene-modified T-cell therapy

The clinical focus reflects engagement with transplant-related and immunotherapy-based approaches in hematologic disease.

Cardiovascular Disease and Cardiomyopathy

Research interests include heart failure, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, myocardial infarction, stroke prevention, and pulmonary arterial hypertension. The portfolio also covers hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, and transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy.

  • Heart failure
  • Acute coronary and cerebrovascular disease
  • Amyloid cardiomyopathy
  • Pulmonary arterial hypertension

Clinical work in this area also includes therapies targeting cardiovascular risk reduction and cardiorenal complications.

Renal Disease, Transplantation, and Metabolic Disorders

The investigator is engaged in studies of chronic kidney disease, IgA nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, Alport syndrome, and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Additional interests include kidney transplantation, renal allograft protection, and proteinuric glomerular disease.

  • Glomerular disorders
  • Kidney transplant care
  • Chronic kidney disease
  • Metabolic and endocrine kidney complications

Related clinical interests extend to diabetes, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and prediabetes, linking renal medicine with broader metabolic care.

Autoimmune, Inflammatory, and Rare Disease Therapies

Clinical research also spans ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and rheumatoid arthritis. Additional therapeutic interests include amyloidosis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and rare pediatric and genetic disorders.

  • Inflammatory bowel disease
  • Autoimmune skin and rheumatic disease
  • Amyloid and hepatobiliary disease
  • Pediatric rare disease

This area includes interest in immune-mediated and targeted therapeutic options across chronic inflammatory conditions.
