👥Biography 个人简介
Corina Bhatt is an endocrinologist specializing in hereditary endocrine neoplasia syndromes including MEN1, MEN2A and 2B, and familial medullary thyroid carcinoma. She contributes to clinical management guidelines for MEN2 and has led research on optimal timing of prophylactic thyroidectomy in RET germline mutation carriers stratified by RET codon-specific risk. Her work addresses cascade testing strategies in families with hereditary endocrine tumors, barriers to genetic testing uptake, and psychosocial aspects of living with hereditary cancer syndromes. Bhatt participates in the North American Neuroendocrine Tumor Society and American Thyroid Association guideline activities.
🧪Research Fields 研究领域
🎓Key Contributions 主要贡献
Prophylactic Thyroidectomy Timing in MEN2
Contributed to evidence guiding timing of prophylactic thyroidectomy in MEN2 carriers based on RET codon-specific risk categories, enabling personalized surgical timing that minimizes overtreatment while preventing invasive medullary carcinoma.
Hereditary Endocrine Tumor Surveillance
Led research on cascade testing and surveillance protocols for MEN1 families, demonstrating improved outcomes with systematic genetic family cascade testing and biochemical surveillance of at-risk relatives.
