Biography
Dr. Glass enrolled in the Medical Scientist Training Program at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) in 1998. He received his PhD from BCM in 2005 from the Department of Human Genetics, where he studied the role of Canonical Wnt Signaling in Bone Regulation. He received his MD from BCM in 2006. He completed his transitional year internship at Cambridge Hospital in Massachusetts in 2008 and his residency in Dermatology at UT Southwestern Medical Center in 2011. He is currently an Assistant Instructor at UT Southwestern.
Dr. Glass spends the majority of his time doing research. His main interest is in studying keloids (exuberant scarring of the skin), how they occur and in finding the genes that predispose people to develop keloids. The ability to develop keloids can be inherited within families, and keloids occur more often in skin of color . Dr. Glass is compiling a registry of individuals as well as families affected by keloids in order to collect samples and information to study keloids further. He also sees patients in his clinic - besides keloids, his clinical interests include genetic skin diseases and granuloma annulare.
