The center has several ongoing research studies including Identifying Genetic Risk and protective Factors for Myositis, Outcome Studies in Juvenile and Adult Dermatomyositis and Polymyositis , Environmental Exposures and Disease Flare in Adult and Juvenile Dermatomyositis and Polymyositis and clinical trials which focus on the response of myositis patients to different therapeutic agents.
