Specializations

Cardiovascular and Renal Interplay

The investigator focuses on the nexus between chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular risk, addressing conditions such as atherosclerotic disease and heart failure.

  • CKD-associated atherosclerosis
  • Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction
  • Post‑PCI antithrombotic strategies
  • Elevated lipoprotein(a) management

Research aims to improve outcomes for patients with overlapping renal and cardiac pathology.

Hematologic Malignancies and Transplantation

Active involvement includes acute myeloid leukemia and related myelodysplastic syndromes, as well as allogeneic stem cell transplant complications.

  • AML and high‑risk MDS therapeutic advances
  • Post‑transplant thrombotic microangiopathy
  • Graft‑versus‑host disease prophylaxis
  • Novel targeted agents in lymphoid neoplasms

Efforts target improving survival and reducing transplant‑related morbidity.

Autoimmune and Inflammatory Disorders

Work encompasses systemic autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel conditions.

  • Biologic therapy optimization in RA
  • Crohn’s disease postoperative recurrence prevention
  • Psoriatic arthritis management strategies
  • Polymyalgia rheumatica glucocorticoid tapering

Focus is on disease control while minimizing long‑term treatment toxicity.

Neurological and Neurodegenerative Conditions

Investigations address disorders like multiple sclerosis and early Alzheimer’s disease, emphasizing disease‑modifying approaches.

  • Progressive MS therapeutic trials
  • Early‑stage Alzheimer’s cognitive endpoints
  • Narcolepsy type 1 symptom management
  • Post‑stroke secondary prevention

Research seeks to halt progression and preserve neurological function.

Infectious Diseases and Immunocompromised Host

Key interests include opportunistic infections in patients with compromised immunity, such as those undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

  • Invasive mold infection prophylaxis
  • CMV transmission prevention in pregnancy
  • Antifungal strategies in AML/MDS
  • Severe community‑acquired pneumonia management

Efforts aim to reduce infection‑related morbidity in high‑risk populations.
