Research interests
 

Hematologic malignancies

Research interests focus on hematologic malignancies, particularly lymphomas, and application of new therapies to these diseases. I see a large number of patients with lymphomas and leukemias, and have active research protocols for such patients including protocols in autologous transplantation.
