Throughout my career as an Associate Professor in the Medicine department at UCSF, my primary research interests have centered around kidney transplantation. My primary focus of research has been in epidemiology and outcomes research in patients with kidney disease and transplantation, particularly cardiovascular disease and peripheral vascular disease.

I have contributed to various research publications exploring topics such as gender disparities in kidney disease and mortality after renal allograft failure. I am also interested in understanding the impact of antibodies in renal transplant candidates and recipients and have been interested in desensitization and prevention and treatment of antibody mediated rejection.
