About

Biography

I am an assistant professor of Neurology in The Ohio State University College of Medicine, and my research focuses on autonomic disorders and neuroimmunology. I specialize in quantitative research approaches, including observational studies, randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, to better understand complex neurological diseases and improve evidence-based care.

My research interests center on the mechanisms, diagnosis and treatment of disorders affecting the autonomic nervous system, as well as the role of immune-mediated processes in neurological disease. Through clinical and translational research, I seek to advance our understanding of autonomic dysfunction and identify strategies that can lead to earlier recognition, more precise diagnosis and improved therapeutic options for these diseases.

I have contributed to phase II and phase III clinical trials involving neurological and autonomic disorders. These studies support medical experts’ ongoing efforts to evaluate emerging treatments and expand the scientific knowledge base in autonomic medicine and neuroimmunology.

My long-term research goals are to advance the field of autonomic disorders through rigorous clinical investigation and to strengthen the connection between scientific discovery and patient outcomes. By applying quantitative research methods across a range of study designs, I aim to generate evidence that improves our understanding of disease mechanisms and informs future therapeutic development.
