Personal profile
Research interests
I am an assistant professor in the Department of Pediatrics and a pediatric neuropsychologist. My research focuses on the natural histories and treatment outcomes of rare diseases involving the central nervous system, particularly lysosomal storage disorders with emphasis on the mucopolysaccharidoses. As part of this research I characterize unique neurocognitive profiles and progression of various neurodegenerative disorders, as well as quantify treatment outcomes and their correlates. In particular, my MPS research has examined longitudinal associations of cognitive deficits with abnormalities in biomarkers and brain structure.
