Brittany N. Weber, MD, PhD is an a cardio-rheumatologist at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, in Boston, MA, USA.
Her initial research focused was on immune development and dysregulation. She then completed her MD and a PhD in Immunology at the University of Pennsylvania. Her thesis work focused on the transcriptional regulation of early T-cell development in Dr Avinash Bhandoola’s laboratory. She completed her internal medicine training at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital and served as a chief medical resident. Her clinical and scientific interests are at the intersection of her two passions—immunology and cardiology—with a focus on cardio-rheumatology. Here, she is focused on the role of systemic inflammation on vascular health and cardiac structure and function. She is currently studying common systemic inflammatory diseases (psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus) to understand the role of inflammation on microvasculature dysfunction using advanced cardiovascular imaging techniques, specifically cardiac positron emission tomography (PET). She has an additional interest in recurrent pericarditis and the use of expanding role of IL-1 biologics. She is the site investigator for the multi-center RESONANCE observational registry focused on understanding the nature history and progression of RP.
