Current research interests

My current research interest is focused mainly on the genetics of inherited bone marrow failure syndromes and leukemia. I am specifically interested in the identification of genetics of chronic cytopenias and predispositions to leukemia, and the recognition of malignant evolution based on genome analyses.
