Research Areas

The Feldman Lab at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is involved in clinical research in the area of paediatric rheumatology. Recognizing the challenges involved in the study of rare disease, the Feldman Lab works to develop, test, and/or refine study designs and outcome measures for use in clinical trials and outcome studies. Dr. Brian Feldman has made contributions to the understanding of the prognosis and treatment of juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM), the cost–effective prevention of arthropathy in severe hemophilia, the effectiveness of exercise as medicine in childhood chronic disease, and the course and outcome of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
