Dr. Anna Halpern is a hematologist-oncologist and a clinical researcher. Her work focuses on hematologic (blood-based) malignancies — specifically, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia and myelofibrosis. This session covers leukemic transformation which means when a bone marrow failure disease transitions to leukemia, usually AML.
