研究領域:
  • Kawasaki disease 川崎症
  • Allergic disease 過敏
  • Rheumatology 風濕

研究成果
Research were focus on immunopathogenesis of Kawasaki disease.  Recently, we found the genetic association of CD40/BLK in the susceptibility of Kawasaki disease that was published on Nature Genetics 2012. We had published more than 40 SCI journal papers of Kawasaki disease including 3 SCI invited review articles, 2 Nature Genetics articles and 4 chapters writing of textbook (Springer, Nova, InTech). We have also constructed blog (http://blog.xuite.net/erickuo48/kawasakidisease) and Facebook group for Kawasaki disease to serve more patients and parents with Kawasaki disease out of hospital.
