Clinical Focus
Diagnostic Radiology
Research Interests
Myocardial bridges (MB) with associated upfront atherosclerotic lesions are common findings on coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA). Abnormal septal wall motion in exercise echocardiography (EE) may to be associated with MB. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is considered the gold standard for the detection of MB. We investigate whether CTA is comparable to IVUS for the assessment of MB and upstream plaques in symptomatic patients with suspicion for MB raised by EE.

Alma-Martina Cepika

Assistant Professor of Surgery (General Surgery)
Research Interests
Cepika Lab studies human immune tolerance. Using cellular immunology, genomics, and gene engineering, we aim to understand: 1) the role of human thymic regulatory T cells (Tregs) and inducible type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cells in resistance to anti-tumor immunity and cancer immunotherapy, and 2) the interplay between innate and adaptive immunity in the pathogenesis of human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Our overarching goal is to leverage our discoveries for improving patient outcomes.

David Fiorentino, MD, PhD

Professor of Dermatology
Clinical Focus
Autoimmune Diseases, Dermatology, myositis, systemic sclerosis
Research Interests
From a clinical standpoint, I am particularly focused in the care of patients with myositis or systemic sclerosis. We offer clinical trials, including novel, cutting-edge cellular-based (e.g. chimeric antigen receptor, or, CAR T) therapies for these diseases. We are particularly interested in understanding the role of auto antigens in providing windows into disease pathogenesis, as well as their potential direct role of autoantibodies in causing disease.
