Specializations

Oncology and solid tumor care

Clinical activity centers on advanced and metastatic malignancies, with strong involvement in breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, urothelial carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, and gastrointestinal cancers. The trial portfolio also includes ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

  • Precision oncology in biomarker-defined tumors
  • HER2-related and hormone receptor-positive breast cancer
  • Lung cancer and thoracic malignancies
  • Genitourinary and gastrointestinal oncology

Work in this area reflects a focus on treatment-resistant and recurrent disease, including molecularly selected populations and advanced solid tumors requiring new therapeutic options.

Hematologic malignancies and cellular therapy

Research interests extend across lymphomas, leukemias, and plasma cell disorders, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma, and myelodysplastic syndromes.

  • B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma
  • Acute myeloid leukemia
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Myelofibrosis and related myeloproliferative disorders

The portfolio also includes graft-versus-host disease and post-transplant hematology, indicating involvement in immune-mediated complications linked to hematologic treatment.

Autoimmune and inflammatory diseases

Therapeutic interests include immune-mediated disorders such as psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, lupus nephritis, atopic dermatitis, and bullous pemphigoid. Additional activity is seen in rheumatoid arthritis, hidradenitis suppurativa, and systemic sclerosis.

  • Inflammatory bowel disease
  • Connective tissue diseases
  • Chronic inflammatory skin disease
  • Autoimmune kidney involvement

This area also covers broader immune dysregulation and refractory inflammatory conditions, aligning with therapeutic development in difficult-to-control immune disorders.

Respiratory, allergic, and sleep-related disorders

Clinical research includes asthma, severe eosinophilic asthma, allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis, interstitial lung disease, and pulmonary arterial hypertension. There is also involvement in obstructive sleep apnea in adults living with overweight or obesity.

  • Severe asthma
  • Allergic airway disease
  • Interstitial lung disease
  • Sleep-disordered breathing

The therapeutic scope spans chronic respiratory control, airway inflammation, and cardiopulmonary complications associated with advanced pulmonary disease.

Renal, cardiometabolic, and metabolic liver disease

Research activity also covers chronic kidney disease, proteinuric glomerular disease, IgA nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, complement-mediated kidney disease, and kidney transplant-related complications. Additional interests include heart failure, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, hyperlipidemia, and alcohol-related liver disease.

  • Glomerular and transplant-related nephrology
  • Heart failure and vascular risk
  • Metabolic liver disease
  • Obesity-associated complications

Her therapeutic landscape includes chronic organ disease management alongside emerging approaches for complex renal, hepatic, and cardiometabolic conditions.
