Scientific Goal
To generate basic information concerning the molecular biology of hematological malignancies and to utilize this information in the design of drug discovery programs and clinical trials

Interactions
The Hematologic Malignancies research program comprises researchers representing five different departments at MUSC.  Areas of research strength include that members have developed:

 Translational studies in both adult and pediatric malignant hematology as well as with bone marrow stem cells,

 High-throughput, robotic assays for drug discovery

 Collaborative research projects with pharmaceutical companies that have resulted in the phase I clinical trials at MUSC of several new anticancer agents

The program members meet monthly to discuss research progress and actively collaborate in the development of new research initiatives and mentoring pre and post doctoral students and junior faculty.
