Research Overview
I am interested in developing personalized treatment plans for patients with autoimmune diseases, to maximize the effectiveness and minimize the side effects of the medications used to treat them. Currently, I am working to understand the "withdrawal" symptoms that patients experience when they taper oral steroids, and to identify tapering plans tailored to specific withdrawal phenotypes.
