Research Interests
My primary research interests lie in the realm of inflammatory skin diseases, specifically AtopicDermatitis, psoriasis, alopecia areata, vitiligo, and ichthyosis. I have focused on examining theactivation and differentiation of T- and B-cells in these conditions through the utilization ofcomprehensive multi-parameter flow cytometry. I am significantly involved in translationalresearch; the objective of my research is to gain a deeper understanding of the underlyingimmune mechanisms involved and to identify potential targets for therapeutic interventions. Ihave published extensively on these topics and am currently expanding my research to includebiomarker analysis. Additionally, I have conducted groundbreaking research on thetachyphylaxis of topical corticosteroids in psoriasis treatment, studied the effects of Petroleumjelly on skin immunology and investigated the effectiveness of Climatotherapy at the Dead Seafor various skin diseases. -
