Research Abstract
I am an Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine and Nephrology at the University of California Irvine UCI-Health. Currently I am best described as a clinician-educator working on reporting of anti vegf agent toxicity (systemic, and intravitreal). I am also interested in AHUS and TMA treatment and clinical outcomes, as well as cases of C3 GN and novel outcomes with C5 and C3 complement blockade. I have done prior work on dysnatremias and sodium correction modeling, as well as optimization of vaptan clinical response. Glomerular disease is also a key area of interest, with case reports written up when evidence of novel pathology or interest is found. I am also generally familiar with onco-nephrology. As far as Clinical interests GNs, care of underserved populations are my niche areas. I am looking to grow in EMR optimization and automation, and have specific interests within the expansive field of Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning related to diagnostic algorithms to assist with TMA diagnoses.
