Research Interests

Research interests are focused on clinical and translational investigations of transfusion safety and include studies of infectious and non-infectious complications of transfusion, including RBC and HLA alloimmunization, graft versus host disease, and evidence based transfusion practices. Recent studies include the molecular characterization of genes associated with alloimmunization and genetic modifiers of hemoglobin F expression.
