    Research interests

    I have been a a resident in anesthesiology and PhD student since 2024. My research has focused on the measurement of renal function and the pathophysiology of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury, with particular interests in methods for assessing glomerular filtration and tubular function. My PhD work includes both clinical and experimental studies of renal function in sepsis.
