Summary

My clinical practice focuses on pediatric allergies, including food allergy, eczema/atopic dermatitis, asthma, environmental allergies, hives, drug allergy and other allergic diseases. My research focuses on phenotyping patients with food allergies and understanding the mechanisms of new investigational therapies for food allergy. My areas of active investigation include (1) safety of investigational therapies and predicting which patients are most likely to benefit, (2) studying metabolite and ribonucleic acid (RNA) profiles of patients with food allergy and (3) investigating immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated and non-IgE-mediated allergic disease in collaboration with the Gastrointestinal Microbiome and Allergic Proctocolitis (GMAP) Study, a healthy infant cohort at Massachusetts General Hospital.
