Summary

  • I am a pediatric rheumatologist specialized in metabolic bone diseases in academia as well as industry. I am currently a clinical development consultant to industry (Helping with choosing indications, the design and interpretation of development plans, trials and natural history studies, etc.), and see patients about one month per year. I am always interested in learning about opportunities to continue to help research efforts pertaining to rare pediatric diseases and bone diseases. And would also like to hear about opportunities to care for children with metabolic bone diseases.
