As director of Duke’s sickle cell transition program, Dr. Nirmish Shah’s practice and research focuses on treating children and adults with sickle cell disease. When he works with children, he tries to focus on teaching them about their condition and how to transition successfully to living with the disease as an adult. For all patients, he focuses on providing the medical, social and psychological support they need to remain healthy. His research aims to increase engagement of sickle cell patients with their own care using mobile technology. Through the use of applications, he is hoping to help patients, specifically children, better manage their symptoms and medications.
