Uma Thanarajasingam, M.D., Ph.D., is a clinician, educator and researcher in the Division of Rheumatology at Mayo Clinic. Dr. Thanarajasingam's research is focused on the translational study of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatic immune-related adverse events (irAEs), which occur as a consequence of immunotherapy for cancer treatment.
Dr. Thanarajasingam hopes that through her lupus research, patients may be better able to understand which drugs may work for their disease subtype, and that by recruiting patients to clinical trials of various phases, accelerate the development of novel therapeutics for lupus, a critical unmet need in this field.
In the realm of irAEs, a relatively novel field of medicine, Dr. Thanarajasingam seeks to better understand the clinical phenotypes and underlying immunologic abnormalities in these patients. She hopes to improve detection and treat patients with irAEs, while still maintaining a robust anti-cancer response that allows patients to continue accessing life-saving cancer treatments.
