My research focuses on the functional role of a pathogenic variant in NLRP3 that causes Keratitis Fugax Hereditaria (KFH), a rare corneal disease reported primarily in Finland and Sweden. In my studies, I use cellular and molecular biology techniques, along with single-cell RNA sequencing, to investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms of KFH.
