Summary
My clinical practice centers around patients with blood cancers such as lymphoma and leukemia. I care deeply for my patients and strive to apply the most effective and promising treatment options and methods. With the team at Bone Marrow and Cell Therapy Program at the University of Minnesota Medical Center, we provide access to hematopoietic cell transplantation, immunotherapies, and novel cellular therapies.In my clinical practice, I every day witness the life-saving potential of transplantation and the capacity of the immune system to eliminate cancer. As a result, my clinical research is focused on the design and development of new approaches which utilize the immune system to attack cancer cells. Currently, I direct the team which is focused on the emerging field of CAR T-cell therapies and Natural Killer cellular therapies for the treatment of lymphoma and myeloma.
