I have a strong interest in exploring the clinical and transitional aspects of pain mechanisms and treatments related to various autoimmune conditions. My primary focus is on juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), as I seek to understand how pain manifests in this patient population and the most effective strategies for managing it. This includes investigating the underlying biological processes responsible for pain, as well as analyzing current therapeutic approaches to provide better care and support for individuals affected by JIA. Through this work, I aim to contribute valuable insights that can enhance treatment protocols and improve the overall quality of life for patients.
