Expertise

My long-term research goals are to understand the functional consequences of mutations driving hematopoietic diseases/malignancies and develop novel therapeutic approaches for these diseases.

Hematopoietic stem cells are self-renewing and multipotent cells that give rise to all types of blood cells in the body.

I have developed an efficient system to knock in and knock out genes in hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). T

These key achievements create a strong foundation for my future research programs that include both clinically oriented (Modeling and developing gene therapy for hematopoietic disorders) and basic research (Exploring novel in vivo functions of genes in hematopoiesis and lymphomagenesis).
