About me

In research, Brar’s primary interest is in epidemiology – the study of who develops certain diseases and factors affecting outcomes as regards to patients who receive or donate kidneys.

Brar earned her medical degree at Government Medical College, Patiala in India. She completed a residency in internal medicine and a fellowship in nephrology at the State University of New York Downstate Health Sciences University.
