I am a Hematologist/Oncologist currently serving as an advanced clinical fellow in the Department of Medicine at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK). I earned my Ph.D. researching the mechanisms of action of imatinib and have since dedicated my efforts to precision medicine, particularly in the treatment of multiple myeloma and malignant lymphoma. My work involves investigating the fundamental mechanisms driving disease progression through clinical trials and translational research. Presently, my research focuses on the impact of minimal residual disease on myeloma survival and the independent prognostic factors of CAR-T cell therapy in both myeloma and lymphoma.
