Expertise

Research

  • Gene therapy, multiple myeloma.

Clinical Interests:

  • Bone marrow transplantation, B cell malignancies, gene therapy, hematopoieisis.

I have focused on Myeloma and with the help of the IU Grand Challenge Grant we are putting together the infrastructure to support highly competitive team of researchers and conduct research aimed at preventing myeloma and improving the treatment of those suffering from the disease especially those with high risk disease where both remission and survival is short.

My collaboration with ASH is focused on database harmonization to develop larger set of patients data to help understand the natural course of myeloma.
