Cancer > Lymphoma, Lymphoma, B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, Burkitt Lymphoma, Follicular Lymphoma, Diffuse Large-Cell Lymphomas, Leukemia, Hairy Cell, Lymphoma, B-Cell, Marginal Zone, Hodgkin Disease, Medical Oncology
Research Interests
My research is focused on attaining a better understanding of the initiation, maintenance, and progression of tumors, and their response to current therapies toward improving future treatment strategies. In this effort, I employ tools from functional genomics, computational biology, molecular genetics, and mouse models.

Clinically, I specialize in the care of patients with lymphomas, working on translating our findings in prospective cancer clinical trials.
