Research Interest: Thrombosis and hemostasis; thrombotic microangiopathies; antiphospholipid syndrome; cancer-associated thrombosis
Research: My research focuses on identifying modifiable factors that influence morbidity and mortality in patients with high-risk thrombotic conditions including microangiopathies, antiphospholipid syndrome, and cancer-associated thrombosis. Through clinical outcome research and clinical trials, the long-term objective of my work is to improve clinical outcomes and develop new therapies for patients with thrombotic conditions.
