Clinical Interests:
Bone-marrow transplantation (allogeneic and autologous) for hematologic malignancies and solid tumors; multiple myeloma

Research Interests:
1. High dose therapy and autologous and allogeneic stem cell rescue for hematologic malignancies (especially multiple myeloma) and solid tumors.  
2. Non-myeloablative allogeneic transplants for hematologic malignancies and solid tumors.
3. Supportive care for hematopoietic stem cell transplants.
4. Prevention and therapy of graft versus host disease.
