Summary

I am a physician-scientist-educator in the Department of Dermatology at the University of Michigan. I have a joint appointment at the Ann Arbor VA Hospital. My clinical practice mainly involves medical Dermatology, with a focus on psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. My research laboratory uses genetics, immunology, and cell biology to learn more about the pathogenesis of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. I’m particularly interested in the nature of innate and acquired immune responses in psoriasis, and how the immune system activates the epidermal hyperproliferative response in psoriasis. I also have a long-standing in keratinocyte biology, particularly regarding autocrine signaling through the EGF receptor. Currently, these interests extend to the role of EGF receptor ligands in carcinomas of epithelial origin, including keratinocyte carcinomas, breast cancer, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
