Abeynayake, Janaki Indira Academic AppointmentsVisiting Instructor/Lecturer, PathologyAllison, Kimberly Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestDr. Allisons clinical expertise is in breast pathology. Her research interests include how standards should be applied to breast cancer diagnostics (such as HER2 testing), the utility of molecular panel-based testing in breast cancer, and identifying the most appropriate management of specific pathologic diagnoses. She is also the author of Red Sunshine, a memoir about her personal experience with breast cancer, a topic which she speaks about to both patient and health care audiences.Andrews, Jennifer CArber, Daniel Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestI study molecular genetic and immunophenotypic changes in human hematopoietic neoplasms. These include acute and chronic leukemias, lymphoma, and splenic tumors.Ashley, Euan AngusAssistant Professor - Med Center Line, GeneticsResearch InterestThe Ashley lab is focused on the application of genomics to medicine. We develop methods for the interpretation of whole genome sequencing data to improve diagnosis of genetic disease and to personalize the practice of medicine. We also use RNA sequencing data to generate gene networks and link communities. Half of the lab is wet benches where we take advantage of cell systems, transgenic models and microsurgical models of disease to prove causality of our favorite targets.Atwater, Susan KelloggResearch InterestI am interested in optimizing the process of diagnosing leukemias, lymphomas and other hematolymphoid neoplasms, particularly by the use of diagnostic flow cytometry. One goal is to develop flow data analysis processes that function as interactive tools, allowing pathologists to query rich diagnostic data sets in real time.Banaei, Niaz Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestDevelopment and implementation of rapid diagnostic assays for the detection, identification, and susceptibility testing of clinically important mycobacteria. Understanding the role of M. tuberculosis lipoproteins in the pathogenesis of tuberculosis.Baron, Ellen Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestIn the Microbiology laboratory, we evaluate cutting-edge new technology for rapid diagnosis of infectious diseases, and we work with high-tech companies to help them develop new diagnostic assays at the pre-market stage. We do not perform basic research and we do not have any fellowship support.Bensch, Klaus GBerry, Gerald Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestCardiopulmonary and pulmonary transplant medicine; diagnostic surgical pathologyBingham, David Academic AppointmentsBouley, Donna Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestResearch interests: ocular pathology, host-pathogen interactions in infectious disease, infectious disease in frogs, phenotypic characterization of tg and ko mice, histopathology of minimally-invasive radiological ablation techniques (focused ultrasound, cryoablation).Bowen, Raffick Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestMy current research involves the investigation of immunoassay interferences from blood collection tube additives; particularly, silicone surfactants.Butcher, Eugene Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestOur interests include: 1) The physiology and significance of lymphocyte homing in local and systemic immunity; 2) biochemical and genetic studies of molecules that direct leukocyte recruitment; 3) cellular and molecular genetic studies of leukocyte chemotaxis and the role of chemokines; 4) vascular differentiation in normal and pathologic inflammatory states; 5) systems and chemical biology approaches to understanding the regulation of lymphocyte trafficking programs.Research InterestMy research interests are vascular biology and cardiovascular pathology. We are currently working on gene expression in endothelial cells at sites of pathology.Cornbleet, Phyllis Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestAs medical director of the Hematology Laboratory, my main focus is service work, including laboratory administration, bone marrow pathology, and flow cytometry interpretation. Publications arise primarily from development or evaluation of laboratory methods or collections of unusual patient cases.Cowan, Tina Academic AppointmentsResearch Interestscreening and diagnosis of patients with inborn errors of metabolism, including newborn screening, development of new testing methods and genotype/phenotype correlations.De Clerck, Brittney KEgbert, Peter Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestOcular pathology of shaken baby syndromeEng, Lawrence Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestAstrocytes make up a substantial proportion of the central nervous system (CNS) and participate in a variety of important physiologic and pathologic processes. They are characterized by vigorous response to diverse neurologic insults.Galel, Susan Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestEnhancement of transfusion safety and effectiveness, with a focus on quality assurance in transfusion therapy; transfusion medicine education; pediatric and adult transfusion therapyGalli, Stephen Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestThe goals of Dr. Galli's laboratory are to understand the regulation of mast cell and basophil development and the expression of mast cell and basophil function, and to develop and use genetic approaches to elucidate the roles of these cells in health and disease.Geaghan, Sharon Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestPediatric Hematopathology, Pediatric Laboratory Medicine and PathologyGlader, Bertil Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestHematology/Oncology, biology, and treatment of bone marrow failure disorders, hereditary coagulation disorders-clinical trials.Gonzalez, Christopher LGoodnough, Lawrence T.Dr. Goodnough has a long-standing interest in alternatives to blood therapy. This includes the concept of antologous blood predonation before elective surgery; acute normovolemic hermodicution;erythropoietic agents to stimulate red blood cell production; pharmacologic strategies to reduce blood loss; artificial oxygen carriers; and re-evaluation of the transfusion trigger. Publications: Goodnough LT: "Erythropoietin", In Scientific Basis of Transfusion Medicine..Graef, Isabella AngelikaResearch InterestWe are interested in addressing questions in neuronal development and function by a combination of genetic, cell biological, biochemical and chemical approaches. The main focus of our lab is centered around two topics: 1) the interface of signaling and gene regulation in neuronal development, with a focus on calcineurin-NFAT signaling; 2) the development of small molecules, which interfere with protein-protein interactions underlying neurodegenerative diseases.Gratzinger, Dita AResearch InterestI have two major research interests: the pre-leukemic bone marrow failure disorder myelodysplastic syndrome, or MDS; and the role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGFR) signaling in lymphoma. I have developed a novel protocol to quantitate protein expression in a cell-lineage-specific pattern in intact bone marrow using a combination of multiple immunofluorescence on tissue microarrays, semi-automated high resolution image scanning, and sophisticated image analysis.Grumet, Frank Academic AppointmentsResearch InterestWork in our laboratory is focused on the study of the human major histocompatibility (HLA) complex. We are seeking to characterize the genes and gene products of this complex and to understand their role in determining transplantation and transfusion compatibility. Laboratory work on this topic ranges from clinical studies correlating graft rejection with HLA antigens identified by classical serology or DNA typing.Jensen, Kristin Academic Appointments50 out of 103 records You are Here:
