Elizabeth Taylor-Albert is a part-time Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine (Practitioner) at the University of Southern California. Her primary affiliation is with the Department of Medicine, where she focuses on clinical research and autoimmune disorders. Her contact email is etaylora@usc.edu.

Her research explores autoimmune mechanisms, with emphasis on:

• Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): Investigating autoantibody profiles in juvenile vs. adult populations
• Viral Etiology: Examining Epstein-Barr virus as a potential trigger for autoimmune responses
• Neonatal Manifestations: Studying cardiac complications like dilated cardiomyopathy in neonatal lupus
• Serological Markers: Characterizing anti-PM/Scl and ribosomal P autoantibodies in asymptomatic patients

Her publications (1994-1999) demonstrate consistent focus on lupus pathogenesis, autoantibody behavior, and pediatric rheumatology. Research employs clinical case analyses, serological testing, and molecular cross-reactivity studies to advance diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
