个人简介

Dr Casciola-Rosen graduated from the University of Cape Town (South Africa) with a doctoral degree in medical biochemistry. She then pursued postdoctoral training in Cell Biology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. She initially joined the faculty in the Department of Dermatology at Johns Hopkins, and subsequently became a faculty member in Rheumatology. She is currently a Professor of Medicine in the Division of Rheumatology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Ph.D., University of Cape Town - Fac of Medicine - Cape Town - (South Africa) (1987)

研究领域

rheumatic autoimmune diseases; autoantibodies; myositis; scleroderma; sjogren's syndrome

Dr. Casciola-Rosen’s research has focused on the shared mechanisms underlying the autoimmune rheumatic diseases, particularly myositis, Sjogren’s syndrome, and scleroderma. Dr. Casciola-Rosen has collaborated closely with Dr. Rosen, using disease-specific autoantibodies as probes to define the events that initiate and drive the autoimmune response in the rheumatic diseases. Dr. Casciola-Rosen also runs the Bioassay Core within the rheumatic diseases research core center, which provides a variety of immune assays to investigators studying the mechanisms of the autoimmune rheumatic diseases
