Research Overview
Data & Insights
Has run more than one trial at 0 of 9 partner sites.
Specializations
Oncology
The investigator focuses on surgical and systemic strategies for breast cancer and colorectal cancer, emphasizing disease staging, resectability, and postoperative outcomes.
- Adjuvant therapy for early‑stage breast cancer
- Resectability assessment in metastatic colorectal cancer
- Post‑operative morbidity in advanced gastrointestinal malignancies
Collaboration with national cancer networks supports evidence‑based surgical pathways.
Autoimmune and Inflammatory Disorders
Research activities address immune‑mediated conditions such as giant cell arteritis and systemic lupus erythematosus, integrating immunomodulatory therapies with clinical outcomes.
- Glucocorticoid taper strategies in giant cell arteritis
- Targeted biologic agents for systemic lupus erythematosus
- Safety monitoring of immune‑suppressive regimens
Efforts aim to refine therapeutic algorithms for chronic inflammatory diseases.
Gastroenterology
The investigator explores therapeutic approaches for inflammatory bowel conditions, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, with attention to microbiome modulation.
- Fecal microbiota transplantation combined with biologics for ulcerative colitis
- Comparative efficacy of biologic agents in Crohn’s disease
- Microbial composition changes during advanced therapy
Studies integrate surgical expertise with emerging microbiome interventions.
Neurology and Cognitive Health
Investigations target age‑related neurocognitive decline, specifically the prevention of incident dementia through immunization strategies.
- Vaccination impact on dementia risk in older adults
- Long‑term cognitive outcomes following immune modulation
- Population‑based assessment of neuroprotective interventions
Research contributes to preventive neurology initiatives within the aging population.
Diagnostic Imaging and Renal Considerations
Focus is placed on optimizing acute abdominal imaging for patients with reduced kidney function, comparing contrast‑enhanced and native computed tomography techniques.
- Contrast‑enhanced CT versus native CT in impaired renal function
- Diagnostic accuracy for acute abdomen under renal constraints
- Safety protocols for intravenous contrast administration
Findings aim to improve imaging decision‑making while preserving renal health.
