He is also spearheading an immunogenetic study, of a unique form of Inflammation arthritis with contrasting etiology (see publications). The impact of these recent studies is a revisiting of the pathogenesis of PsA and the likelihood of considering the “OVERLAP MSK disorder” as a disease subset, akin to MCTD.
