I am a faculty member appointed within rheumatology and epidemiology at the University of Pennsylvania and funded by Merit Awards though Veterans Affairs Clinical Science Research & Development and Rehabilitation Research & Development. Through this support I have focused on identifying modifiable risk factors with the goal of improving clinical care of chronic forms of arthritis, particularly rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Specifically, I aim to conduct observational and interventional studies with a focus on skeletal muscle health, obesity, bone, and joint health, cardiovascular disease, and other long-term outcomes in patients with arthritis.
