Professional background
Dr Jessica Manson is a consultant rheumatologist. She has a wide clinical practice, and a special interest in acute rheumatology and hyper-inflammation.
She created, and co-chairs, a national group to improve outcome for patients with haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) (HASC, the HLH across speciality collaboration) and also chairs a multi-disciplinary HLH group at UCLH.
She is an honorary associate professor at UCL. Her PhD focused on lupus nephritis, and more recent research on the aetiopathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis and on hyperinflammation in COVID.
She is regularly involved in teaching medical students, junior doctors and allied health professionals.
