Her clinical and research interests remain focused on systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and she is an active member of the M.U.S.C.L.E. Research Group (www.musc.edu/lupus). She has headed several large observational investigations, including studies of the prevalence, characteristics, and genetics of SLE within the Sea Island African American Gullah population (the S.L.E.I.G.H. Study) and has been awarded grants from the NIH to investigate the role of vitamin D in SLE and to explore potential environmental triggers of autoimmunity. She is also involved in multiple interventional clinical trials in lupus, both industry-sponsored and investigator-initiated. She serves as the Clinical Director for the Lupus Clinical Trials Consortium at MUSC, is a member of the Lupus Foundation of America (LFA) Medical-Scientific Advisory Council, the Lupus Clinical Investigator Network (LuCIN), and a member of the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC).
