Research Activities
As a PhD student, my research revolves around the intricate mechanisms underlying rheumatoid arthritis (RA), particularly focusing on cell signaling pathways and chemokine interactions within the synovial microenvironment. Delving into the complexities of RA pathogenesis fuels my passion for uncovering novel therapeutic strategies to alleviate the burden of this debilitating disease. Through my academic journey, I aim to contribute meaningful insights to the field of rheumatology while nurturing a deep-seated commitment to scientific inquiry and innovation.
