Research & Clinical Interest
My research is focused on high-risk myeloid malignancies, Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD), and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients who lack matched donors. I specialize in treating a wide spectrum of bone marrow failure syndromes with conventional and novel agents to broaden the spectrum of eligible patients for this potentially curative treatment. My clinical interests include allogeneic and autologous stem cell transplant and immunotherapy for the treatment of hematologic cancers.
