Bio
I am an academic pediatric endocrinologist with research interests in type I diabetes and metabolic bone disease. I have been at the Indiana University School of Medicine since 1996 when I began my fellowship training and on faculty there since 1999. Prior to this I trained at Harvard, University of Pennsylvania, and Northwestern University.
