Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Megan W. Butler's research has focused on understanding immune system function and its role in disease, particularly in pediatric populations. Her work has investigated T and B lymphocyte function in children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia, as well as quantitative and functional deficits of suppressor T cells in children with atopic eczema. Butler has also explored the involvement of specific genes and their associated clinical phenotypes, including ASXL2 and EFL1, in rare genetic disorders. Her publications also touch on candidate genes for neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's and the clinical approach to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in children. She has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences on several projects.
