research interests

  • Dr. Ale’s research focuses on inborn errors of immunity, with an emphasis on the clinical and immunologic features of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome across the lifespan. Her work examines antibody function and vaccine responses, including responses to pneumococcal vaccination, as well as the broader clinical manifestations of the syndrome. She is particularly interested in how detailed characterization of these features can guide individualized monitoring and care as patients transition from pediatric to adult services.
    She collaborates with investigators across institutions to characterize the variability of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and study how its clinical and immunologic features evolve over time. Her work has appeared in The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice, Journal of Clinical Immunology, and Pediatrics in Review.
