My long-term goal is to improve the care and outcomes of children with rheumatic diseases. My research has focused on defining and improving outcomes in pediatric-onset Lupus, evaluating and treating childhood osteoporosis and addressing the transition needs of patients as they transition from pediatric to adult providers. I have experience conducting single-center and multi-center studies of various designs, including cohort studies, RCTs, focus groups, and consensus work.
