interests are in the restoration
of natural hearing in patients
with immune-mediated
hearing loss who are resistant
to conventional corticosteroid
therapy. She is currently
studying how to prevent
further hearing loss and
identify new biologic markers
in these patients.

Diamond Blackfan anemia
(DBA). Her goal is to better
understand the epidemiology
and biology of this red cell
disorder, and ultimately
discover better diagnostic and
treatment options.
