Seeking men and women with Systemic Lupus Erythematous(SLE) and Lupus Nephritis for a biorepository study to collect health information and biological samples to help researchers learn more about the disease and help design future studies.
Seeking men and women whose rheumatoid arthritis has not responded to TNF-biologic treatment for a study comparing two different types of treatments (non-TNFi-biologic and tsDMARDs).
Seeking adults who have inflammatory arthritis and who are willing to provide data by answering questionnaires, giving a blood sample and donating leftover tissue samples for a study to help researchers better understand inflammatory arthritis.
Seeking people who been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) or a similar immune disorder of the central nervous system or their immediate family members for a study to better understand what causes these diseases and perhaps improve treatment.
Newly diagnosed (within 6 months) people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) sought for a trial comparing "first line" (traditional) with "second line" (aggressive) treatments in preventing disability. This is a pragmatic trial which means that even though participants will be randomly assigned a treatment group, they and their doctor can change their treatment if needed.
We are collecting data and biological samples from people with infectious or inflammatory conditions of the bowel such as celiac disease, colitis, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and from people who do not have bowel disease to get a better understanding of these diseases.
Seeking blood samples from healthy volunteers and volunteers who have various autoimmune diseases, like type 1 diabetes
We are studying how skin diseases occur in the skin, including how immune cells choose to initiate disease as well as what causes them to enter the skin.
Seeking men and women with or without an inflammatory skin disease ( such as cutaneous lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, atopic dermatitis, alopecia areata, scleroderma, eczema, psoriasis, vitilago, or drug hypersensitivity) for a study to learn more about skin diseases and their response to light.
