  Member,  Stanford Cancer Institute
  
  Clinical Focus

  • Cancer  >  Cutaneous (Dermatologic) Oncology
  • Dermatology
  • Autoimmune Blistering Diseases
  Research Interest

  The Marinkovich lab studies the function of epithelial extracellular matrix molecules, including integrins, collagens and laminins in epithelial development and carcinoma progression. We apply our discoveries in this area towards development of molecular therapies for carcinomas, hair disease and inherited epithelial adhesive disorders.

  Clinical Focus

  • Cancer  >  Hematology
  • Hematology

  Miklos, David 
  Academic Appointments Assistant Professor - Med Center Line,  Medicine - Blood & Marrow Transplantation
  Member,  Stanford Cancer Institute
  
  Clinical Focus

  • Cancer  >  Blood and Marrow Transplant
  • Cancer  >  Hematology
  • Aplastic Anemia
  Research Interest

  Investigates the targets of immune responses after human allogeneic stem cell transplantation. BMT patients develop antibodies against minor histocompatibility antigens (mHA) that are associated with chronic graft-v-host disease (cGVHD) and disease remission. Current projects: investigate Ab anti-tumor mechanism, high-throughput serologic identification of novel mHA in the development of GVHD and prevention of disease relapse, and clinical trials of B cell therapeutics for cGVHD.

  Clinical Focus

  • Cancer  >  Neuro Oncology
  • Minimally Invasive Spinal Surgery
  • Spinal Oncology/ Spinal Tumor Surgery
  Research Interest

  Dr. Mindea’s primary clinical interests include minimally invasive spinal surgery techniques and the management of primary and metastatic spinal tumors (cyberknife/ surgical oncology). His research interests include the development medical devices and cutting-edge technologies for the treatment of spinal disorders and tumors.

  Clinical Focus

  • Cancer  >  Hematology
  • Cancer  >  Hematology  > Hematologic Malignancies
  • Cancer  >  Lymphoma
  Research Interest

  Beverly Mitchell's research relates to the development of new therapies for hematologic malignancies, including leukemias and myelodsyplastic syndromes. She is interested in preclinical proof of principle studies on mechanisms inducing cell death and on metabolic targets involving nucleic acid biosynthesis in malignant cells. She is also interested in the translation of these studies into clinical trials.
