Specializations

Inflammatory and Autoimmune Diseases

Rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, juvenile psoriatic arthritis, and systemic sclerosis are central to the investigator’s clinical research profile, alongside broader work in immune-mediated skin and joint disease.

  • Atopic dermatitis
  • Hidradenitis suppurativa
  • Diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis

Therapeutic interests also extend to JAK inhibition, interleukin-targeted therapy, and other advanced immunomodulatory approaches.

Gastroenterology and Hepatology

The investigator is involved in clinical research across chronic inflammatory bowel conditions and related digestive disorders, with emphasis on disease control and maintenance of remission.

  • Crohn’s disease
  • Ulcerative colitis
  • Eosinophilic esophagitis

Additional therapeutic interest includes intestinal inflammation and long-term management of relapsing gastrointestinal disease.

Renal and Metabolic Disorders

Clinical activity includes kidney-focused research in IgA nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and other proteinuric disorders, with attention to preserving renal function and limiting inflammatory injury.

  • Chronic kidney disease
  • IgA nephropathy
  • Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

The investigator also contributes to studies in type 2 diabetes, obesity, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, reflecting a metabolic disease interest linked to cardiometabolic risk.

Cardiovascular and Thrombotic Disease

Research involvement covers a broad spectrum of cardiovascular conditions, including heart failure syndromes, atherosclerotic risk reduction, and thromboembolic prevention.

  • Heart failure
  • Atrial fibrillation
  • Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

Areas of interest also include pulmonary arterial hypertension, hypertension, and transcatheter aortic valve implantation-related antithrombotic strategies.

Neurology, Pulmonology, and Ophthalmology

The investigator’s portfolio also includes neurodegenerative and seizure disorders, respiratory disease, and retinal conditions, showing participation across several specialty domains.

  • Epilepsy
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Geographic atrophy

Additional therapeutic focus is seen in migraine, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and diabetic macular edema.
