Research Interest
Along with Mount Sinai Hospital colleagues Drs. Chang, Nanji, and Kolomietz we have established a Placental Molar Disease (PMD) Lab Diagnostic Service which focuses on the diagnosis of placental hydatidiform molar disease. Hydatidiform molar disease is a major precursor of life-threatening gestational trophoblastic disease. Through the combination of pathologic and molecular analyses the PMD Diagnostic Service has improved the accuracy and precision in the diagnosis of molar disease.
