Research Interests
My research focuses on the intersection between infectious organisms and rheumatologic conditions and its implications in pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment. I am currently studying the fecal microbiome in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) to learn how it compares to healthy controls and to assess how the different features of the fecal microbiome associate with clinical characteristics in JIA, including dietary intake.
