PropertyValue
keywords Alport syndrome
overview My research leverages my multi-disciplinary training in biochemistry, immunology and nephrology to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the etiology and pathogenesis of antibody-mediated glomerular diseases. I have extensive experience and expertise studying the structure, function and pathobiology of type IV collagen and its role in acquired and inherited diseases of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). I rank among the leading experts in the areas of Goodpasture disease (anti-GBM antibody nephritis) and Alport syndrome. I am also interested in the pathomechanisms of and factors contributing to health disparities in lupus nephritis and membranous nephropathy.
