I am honored to join Rutgers Cancer Institute, the only NCI-designated cancer center in the state, where cutting-edge cancer research is conducted and state-of-the-art cancer care is delivered.

My interest in hematological malignancies started in medical school, driving me to pursue research in this field. After graduating from West China Medical School, I joined the University of Cincinnati’s Cancer and Cell Biology program, where my research focused on targeting autophagy in acute leukemia and earned my PhD. Following this, I completed my internal medicine residency at Albert Einstein College of Medicine/Jacobi Medical center. I then completed my fellowship training at New York University, where I continued to specialize in hematological malignancies and actively engaged in clinical research.

I am excited to extend my passion for leukemia care at Rutgers. I am committed to patient-centered care, recognizing that each patient is a unique individual with their own values, experiences, and goals. In practice, I aim to foster a compassionate and collaborative relationship with each patient, making sure their preference and concerns are central to the decision-making process. My extensive training experience allow me to stay updated with the rapidly evolving field of hematological malignancies and offer guidance informed by the latest medical advancements. My goal is to provide my patients with optimized care that aligns with their individual objectives.
