MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Innovaderm Research, a leader in dermatological research, is pleased to announce the appointment of Juan Gabriel Ovalles Bonilla, MD, PhD, a seasoned Europe-based board-certified rheumatologist, to its team. Dr Ovalles’ experience and expertise marks Innovaderm’s expansion into the field of rheumatology, furthering its commitment to advancing research and patient care in systemic autoimmune disease.

Dr Ovalles brings 12+ years of clinical research expertise and a background in both general and pediatric rheumatology to Innovaderm. As a distinguished member of the Spanish Society of Rheumatology, his specialist knowledge spans systemic immune-mediated diseases, inflammatory arthropathies, juvenile rheumatic conditions, crystal-deposition diseases, osteoarthritis and osteoporosis.
