Dr. Dana Orange, MD, MSc, is an Assistant Attending Rheumatologist at HSS and Assistant Professor at Rockefeller University. She received her medical degree from Weill Cornell Medical College, Cornell University, and her MSc from Rockefeller University. She completed her Internal Medicine Residency at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital and her Rheumatology fellowship at HSS. Dr. Orange's research aims to understand the molecular underpinnings of symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis such as pain, morning stiffness, and flares

Our group focuses on characterizing the molecular mechanisms that underlie phenotypes of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In previous studies we have used machine learning to integrate rheumatoid arthritis gene expression profiles with histology features to provide insight into RA disease subsets (Arthritis and Rheumatol, 2018) and have noted the persistence of histologic and transcriptional evidence of subclinical synovial inflammation in RA patients in clinical remission (Arthritis and Rheumatol, 2019). We have also developed methods to empower patients to participate in dense longitudinal genomics studies from home and used this approach to gain insights into the immune events that led to rheumatoid arthritis flares (NEJM, 2020).
One of the goals of HSS is to advance the science of orthopedic surgery, rheumatology, and related disciplines for the benefit of patients. Physicians at HSS may collaborate with outside companies for education, research and medical advances. HSS supports this collaboration in order to foster medical breakthroughs; however HSS also believes that these collaborations must be disclosed.
As part of the disclosure process, this website lists physician collaborations with outside companies. The disclosures are provided by information provided by the physician and other sources and are updated regularly. Further information may be available on individual company websites.
As of November 05, 2021, Dr. Orange reported no relationships with healthcare industry.
By disclosing the collaborations of HSS physicians with industry on this website, HSS and its physicians make this information available to their patients and the public, thus creating a transparent environment for those who are interested in this information. Further, the HSS Conflicts of Interest Policy does not permit physicians to collect royalties on products developed by him/her that are used on patients at HSS.
