About me

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Rheumatology Unit.

Research

I have been working on studies that try to understand the role of the lungs
in the initiation of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). More specifically, I have
been studying the immunogenetics and Citrulline reactivity of the lung B
cells in lungs of risk RA and early untreated RA.
