“My research is focused on the coagulation protein von Willebrand factor and its interactions with ligands, including platelets and collagen. My laboratory studies the molecular biology of von Willebrand factor, with an interest in mutations and sequence variations, and their effect on protein function.”

Paul Harker-Murray, MD, PhD

“My research interests include family adjustment, psychosocial outcomes of bone marrow/peripheral stem cell donation, and school re-integration.”

David A. Margolis, MD

David A. Margolis, MD

鈥淢y research interests are focused on the treatment of children with severe aplastic anemia as well as allogeneic hematopoietic progenitor cell transplant for children with malignant and non-malignant disorders.鈥�

 

Jeffrey A. Medin, PhD

Jeffrey Medin, PhD

 "My research is focused on ameliorating acquired and inherited disorders by way of gene therapy. My laboratory develops novel chimeric antigen receptor and bispecific antibody-based immunotherapies and studies the pathophysiology and treatment of inherited monogenic diseases."

“My research interests are in preclinical development of novel selenium-based anti-cancer agents with emphasis on proteinated subnano particles of elemental selenium. Selenium-based interventions for the prevention and mitigation of therapy-induced toxicities with emphasis on radiation- and chemotherapy-induced hearing loss and cognitive defects.”

Julie-An Talano, MD

Research Affiliations

The and the Pediatric Hematology/Oncology/Blood and Marrow Transplant Division at the 老澳门六合彩图库 have an ongoing collaboration that has contributed to an invaluable network of scientific discovery and patient care.

The is a combined research program of the National Marrow Donor Program and the 老澳门六合彩图库 working to collect and study data on blood and bone marrow transplants worldwide. More than 500 international transplant centers collaborate with the CIBMTR to conduct research studies, collect, maintain, and share outcomes data on more than 300,000 transplant recipients, provide statistical expertise to researchers, and to provide education, guidelines, and training.

The advances state-of-the-art pediatric health care through translational research programs to find life-saving discoveries and cures in the disease that affect children and interventions that enhance quality of life for children and families living with chronic health conditions.

The Clinical Immunodiagnostic and Research Laboratory (CIRL) provides comprehensive diagnostic services and innovative methods to detect, diagnose, and treat immunologic, hematologic, and oncologic disease states.

The 老澳门六合彩图库 Cancer Center is the only academic-based cancer research and patient care group in Southeastern Wisconsin. It is a matrix cancer center with clinical facilities at Froedtert Hospital, Children's Wisconsin, and Zablocki VA Medical Center.

The , a Milwaukee based charitable organization, works very closely with the Pediatric Hematology/Oncology/Blood and Marrow Transplant Division and the 老澳门六合彩图库 to fight pediatric cancer and related blood disorders through research funding. Since its inception in 1976, the MACC Fund has contributed nearly $30 million to the College’s pediatric cancer and blood disorder research. This unique and exceptional affiliation provides researchers in the resources needed to fight against childhood cancer and related blood disorders.
