Specializations

Gynecologic Oncology

The investigator focuses on malignancies of the female reproductive system, including breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and ovarian neoplasms, seeking innovative therapeutic strategies.

  • Triple negative breast cancer
  • HER2‑positive breast cancer
  • High‑risk endometrial carcinoma
  • Advanced ovarian cancer
  • Fallopian tube neoplasms

Efforts emphasize targeted agents and immunotherapies to improve survival and quality of life for women with these cancers.

Obstetric Therapeutics

Research aims to enhance maternal outcomes during labor and delivery, including the use of pharmacologic adjuncts to facilitate spontaneous birth.

  • Induction of labor
  • Non‑operative delivery facilitation
  • Pain management in childbirth
  • Maternal hemostasis
  • Peri‑operative interventions

These studies support evidence‑based protocols that reduce complications and promote safe vaginal delivery.

Reproductive Endocrinology & Metabolic Disorders

Investigations address hormonal and metabolic conditions that influence fertility and pregnancy health, such as type 2 diabetes and obesity.

  • Gestational diabetes management
  • Obesity‑related reproductive risk
  • Metabolic control in antipsychotic‑using patients
  • Hormone‑responsive breast disease
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome research

The work integrates endocrine therapy and lifestyle interventions to improve reproductive outcomes.

Autoimmune & Inflammatory Conditions in Women

Focus includes systemic diseases with higher prevalence or impact in female patients, such as systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis.

  • Immune thrombocytopenia
  • Juvenile idiopathic arthritis
  • Hidradenitis suppurativa
  • Psoriasis treatment
  • Primary Sjögren's syndrome

Studies evaluate biologic and targeted therapies to achieve disease control while preserving reproductive health.

Neurological & Cognitive Disorders Affecting Maternal Health

Research explores conditions that intersect neurology and obstetrics, including Alzheimer’s disease and vascular cognitive impairment in the peripartum period.

  • Dementia with Lewy bodies
  • Mild cognitive impairment
  • Stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation
  • Acute ischemic stroke management
  • Neurovascular complications of pregnancy

The aim is to develop strategies that safeguard both neurological function and maternal safety.
