Lynn A. Fussner

Lynn A. Fussner studies ANCA-associated vasculitis, a group of rare autoimmune diseases that cause inflammation of small blood vessels, with particular attention to how it affects the lungs, including alveolar hemorrhage (bleeding into the lung's air sacs) and other pulmonary complications. Their work includes clinical trials and guideline development on treatments such as avacopan, plasma exchange, and glucocorticoids, as well as laboratory research on antibody biomarkers used to diagnose and monitor these conditions. This research is aimed at improving diagnosis, treatment strategies, and clinical outcomes for patients with vasculitis and related lung diseases.
