OBLAST NAUČNOG INTERESOVANJA
Istraživanja u oblasti molekularne biomedicine sa fokusom na retke bolesti. Do sada, izučavala je genetičku osnovu nekoliko retkih bolesti u srpskoj populaciji, optimizujući metode za detekciju mutacija i stvarajući osnovu za molekularnu dijagnostiku (fenilketonurija, tetrahidrobiopterin deficijencije, organske acidurije, talasemije kongenitalna adrenalna hiperplazija itd). Posebnu pažnju posvećuje funkcionalnoj karakterizaciji novootkrivenih genetičkih varijanti (studije transkripcione ekspresije i studije proteinske stabilnosti i aktivnosti) radi što potpunijeg razumevanja korelacije genotipa i fenotipa određenih retkih bolesti, predikcije težine bolesti i predikcije efikasnosti specifičnih lekova na osnovu genotipa obolelog (npr. primena leka „Kuvan“ kod pacijenata sa fenilketonurijom).
