Our lab is comprised of many talented and dedicated researchers all working towards the common goal of making the lives of APS patients better. This month we are highlighting our Frankel Cardiovascular Center Summer Undergraduate Research Fellow, Karena Moleakunnel.

The APS 101 Series, written by Jacqueline Madison, MD, takes you through the ins and outs of APS, providing facts and key information to help you better understand the disorder. In this month’s edition, Dr. Madison discusses obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome, issues that can arise, and treatment strategies.

A research team is investigating how metabolism – the process by which cells turn sugars, fats and proteins into energy – is used to make NETs in regards to antiphospholipid syndrome.

Congratulations to Dr. Yu (Ray) Zuo and Dr. Jacqueline Madison, recipients of annual Department of Internal Medicine and Department of Pediatrics education awards.

Dr. Yu (Ray) Zuo recently sat down with podcast host, Victoria Shanmugam, MBBS, MRCP, CCD, to discuss whether calprotectin can be a functional biomarker for those with APS thrombocytopenia and what the future holds for this study’s conclusions.

Jacqueline Madison, MD, Assistant Professor in the Division of Rheumatology and member of the APS Research Labs, has been awarded the CARRA-Arthritis Foundation Research Grant.
