About Me
As a board-certified rheumatologist with extensive clinical and research experience at NYU Langone, I dedicated to advancing the understanding and treatment of autoimmune diseases.
Throughout my career, I have focused on both clinical care and research. My clinical responsibilities include co-director of the NYU LOH Lupus Clinic and director of inpatient rheumatology at Bellevue Hospital Center.
My research largely focuses on systemic lupus erythematosus and related autoimmune diseases, including Sjogren's disease and neonatal lupus. The backbone of our team's research is based on the NYU Lupus Cohort, established in 2014, which I co-direct along with NYU Langone rheumatologist, Jill P. Buyon, MD, and the Research Registry for Neonatal Lupus, established in 1994. Our research has been funded over the years by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, National Institutes of Health, and Bloomberg Philanthropies.
Highlights of our research include epidemiologic data on the incidence and prevalence of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) as part of the Manhattan Lupus Surveillance Program, the efficacy of the COVID vaccines in patients with SLE, and the demonstration that maternal hydroxychloroquine use may reduce the recurrence of cardiac neonatal lupus.
