About me
I am a rheumatologist at the Faculty of Medicine, Thammasat University, Thailand. I am passionate about providing excellent care for people with gout and other joint problems, as well as deepening the knowledge of rheumatic diseases in Asia Pacific.
In 2021, I completed a PhD in Medicine at the University of Otago, Wellington, where I developed clinical prediction rule (GOUT-36 rule) for prediction of gout flare during hospital stay. My current research focuses on the epidemiology, risk factors and impact of gout flare. I have collaborated with several organizations including the University of Auckland, the University of Queensland, the COVID-19 Global Rheumatology Alliance and the APLAR Crystal-induced arthritis SIG.
