My research focus is on myelpopiesis and severe congenital neutropenia. We study the malignant transformation processes in patients with congenital neutropenia. We use iPSC models of severe congenital neutropenia. 

I am a pediatric hematologist-oncologist. My major clinical interest is non-malignant hematology, and especially inherited bone marrow failure syndromes.
