Dr. Merke is a Senior Investigator and Chief of the Pediatric Service at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, USA. Her research focuses on the pathophysiology and genetics of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH), including the study of a contiguous gene deletion syndrome affecting approximately 10% of CAH patients, termed CAH-X. Dr. Merke is currently conducting a Natural History Study of CAH, with over 450 patients enrolled. She was the first to identify adrenaline deficiency as a new hormonal imbalance in CAH. Central to her work is the study of new treatments, including circadian cortisol replacement adjuvant therapies to allow for lower dose glucocorticoid replacement. Dr. Merke’s studies of CAH provide insight into the clinical and genetic complexities of CAH and promise to improve patient outcome
