My interest is clinical investigation in areas of renal transplantation. We have published several studies examining bone disease in renal transplant patients and we are now evaluating these patients on anti-resorptive therapy. We also studying the safety & efficacy of angiotensin antagonists in renal transplant patient early post transplant. I am always interested in supporting clinical research in transplant patients.
