About me

  • MD PhD

     

  • Senior consultant rheumatologist | Associate Professor of Rheumatology


    Research area: Clinical and translational research within the field of inflammation and autoimmunity

     

  • I studied medicine at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece, and graduated in 2006. I have an interest in B cell biology and novel 

  • treatments for systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis. My research has focused on identifying biomarkers and calibrating predictive models for diagnostics, clinical and immune responses to therapies, and long-term prognosis in systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus 
  • nephritis.

Research

  • The goal of our research is to contribute to improved surveillance and 

  • management for people living with systemic lupus erythematosus. We focus on
    identification of biomarkers that reflect activity and portend flare,  
  • response or non-response to therapy, particularly B cell targeted biologics,  
  • and long-term outcome. We stress on patient-reported health status and 
  • patient participation in medical care.

     

  • Last but not least, we have projects within medical pedagogy, and we are currently working on the development of a novel virtual patient modality for 


  • enhancing the acquirement of clinical reasoning skills and for facilitating 
  • interprofessional learning.
