I have been the principal investigator <strong>of</strong> funded clinical trials as well as observational studies relating to<br />
scleroderma, vasculitis, and other rheumatic diseases. My <strong>research</strong> centers on the initiation and<br />
per<strong>for</strong>mance <strong>of</strong> clinical trials that are designed to improve the quality <strong>of</strong> life <strong>of</strong> patients by providing<br />
evidence on the tolerability, safety, and effectiveness <strong>of</strong> investigational drugs in the treatment <strong>of</strong> these<br />
diseases. In addition, I provide direction and guidance <strong>for</strong> fellows and junior faculty members who are<br />
conducting translational <strong>research</strong> with the objectives <strong>of</strong> better understanding the various biologic factors<br />
that influence the disease and identifying new therapeutic targets.<br />
