About
My research focuses on identifying the genetic causes of human diseases as a means to both better diagnosis and treat patients and understand basic biologic principles. We are interested in studying autoimmune and auto-inflammatory diseases to elucidate the mechanism underlying these diseases and improve patient care. We use a combination of genetic, and biochemical approaches in patient derived and animal models to better understand these diseases. Our aim is to directly connect human diseases with basic innate immune biology using genetics.
