Her clinical research interests are in venous thromboembolism and the degree of morbidity and mortality associated with this disease.
Dr. Khatibi received her undergraduate degree from Texas A&M University and attended University of the Pacific where she earned her doctorate. She completed a post-doctoral/residency training program at Loma Linda University Medical Center.
While pursuing her undergraduate degree, Parmis co-founded TCNC, a corporation committed to proper health and nutrition for children in home daycare settings. Her passion lies in assisting children and families in poverty-stricken areas and breaking the cycle of poverty amongst familial generations. She believes education and a good home environment are important in a child's early life in order for them to nourish mentally, physically, and emotionally and free themselves from the confines of poverty. Prior to her matriculation for her doctorate, Parmis was a high school teacher in a poverty-stricken area of south central Los Angeles. She implemented many programs that dealt with gang prevention as well as self-esteem and self-confidence issues for young women.
