User:Aaronabend

I am Aaron Abend. I am a database expert who has spent the last 15 years working in the field of medicine. In 2013, my mother was diagnosed with sicca syndrome and I became interested in autoimmune disease. In 2016 I founded the Autoimmune Registry, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that is creating a national registry for all autoimmune diseases.

I regularly edit the list of Autoimmune Diseases since the Autoimmune Registry uses this as its list of included diseases.

I am (still) new to editing Wikipedia and welcome any comments and suggestions, either on the talk pages of the pages I am working on, or privately via email.

More information on my background is on LinkedIn. I split my time between a home in Connecticut and an apartment in New York City.
