Research Interests
My areas of special interests include neuropathic pain, diabetic neuropathy, and autoimmune neuropathies. I also have a clinical and research interest in brachial plexopathies, and am currently involved in a project evaluating radiation induced brachial plexopathy, with a goal to reduce this complication of breast cancer treatment.
