Specializations
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Clinical research interest in Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, with attention to therapies for moderate to severe disease, pediatric inflammatory bowel disease, and long-term disease control.
- Moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease
- Moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis
- Pediatric inflammatory bowel disease
- Fistulizing perianal Crohn’s disease
Also involved in treatment areas linked to immune-mediated gastrointestinal inflammation and intestinal mucosal healing.
Cardiovascular and Thrombotic Disease
Active in studies addressing heart failure, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, stroke prevention, and broader atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
- Heart failure with preserved or reduced ejection fraction
- Acute ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack
- Thromboembolic disease
- Hyperlipidemia and elevated lipoprotein(a)
Therapeutic focus also includes cardiometabolic risk reduction and antithrombotic treatment strategies.
Pediatric Neurology and Epilepsy
Research involvement extends to epilepsy in children, including focal-onset seizures, primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and refractory seizure disorders.
- Focal-onset and partial-onset seizures
- Lennox-Gastaut syndrome
- Dravet syndrome
- Long-term pediatric antiseizure treatment
Additional interest is seen in pediatric neurologic disease management and developmental seizure syndromes.
Oncology and Hematologic Malignancies
Clinical trial activity includes solid tumors and blood cancers, with emphasis on lung cancer, lymphoma, leukemia, and multiple myeloma.
- Non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer
- Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
- Acute myeloid leukemia and chronic myeloid leukemia
- Relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma
Research also covers pediatric oncology and advanced metastatic malignancies.
Autoimmune, Renal, and Rare Immune Disorders
Distinctive therapeutic interest is present in autoimmune disease, kidney disease, and selected rare inflammatory conditions, including disorders affecting the skin, joints, and neuromuscular system.
- Systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis
- Psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis
- Chronic kidney disease and immunoglobulin A nephropathy
- Myasthenia gravis and immune thrombocytopenia
Additional involvement includes complement-mediated and antibody-driven disease, as well as immune dysregulation in pediatric and adult populations.
