Collaboration with multidisciplinary teams—including geneticists, rheumatologists, and physical therapists—is essential for comprehensive patient care and successful research outcomes. Additionally, managing long-term treatment plans and adapting to new therapeutic approaches require strong communication and problem-solving skills.
