About
I am a physician-scientist who sees patients in clinic with disorders of clonal hematopoiesis and myeloid cancers, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). My clinical and research interests focus on RNA regulation in hematologic malignancies. Specifically, I investigate how mutations in splicing factors affect RNA processing and contribute to disease progression. These genetic mutations can occur at any stage of life, leading to complex disorders that are often challenging to diagnose and treat. In the laboratory, we utilize advanced genomic technologies
