Autoimmune diseases, such as scleroderma, that attack the skin can be deadly and disfiguring. The superficial marks borne by people with these conditions can indicate disease inside the body. In some cases, skin changes can even predict the disease’s occurrence. Yale researchers are working to understand the relationships between autoimmune disease and skin problems and how mapping them can help clinicians improve patient care.
