Association b/tween IVIG response & FcyR gene in KD patients

[Pioneer]

Check out this paper that I just found!! One author: Dr Michael Portman is doing other studies at Seattle Children's Hospital in Seattle, WA. This is really interesting and helpful to know how IVIG works. Dr Portman also has other studies, I am so excited to get involved!!
