About
Jan Philipp Bewersdorf, MD, specializes in hematology with a focus on the treatment of myeloid malignancies, including myeloproliferative neoplasms, myelodysplastic syndromes, and acute myeloid leukemia.These conditions involve the abnormal development of blood cells and can present with symptoms such as fatigue, recurrent infections, and easy bruising. In his research, Dr. Bewersdorf collaborates with laboratory-based colleagues to integrate basic research with clinical applications, aiming to uncover new therapeutic strategies for diseases of the blood and bone marrow. "While we still cannot

About
I am a physician-scientist who sees patients in clinic with disorders of clonal hematopoiesis and myeloid cancers, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). My clinical and research interests focus on RNA regulation in hematologic malignancies. Specifically, I investigate how mutations in splicing factors affect RNA processing and contribute to disease progression. These genetic mutations can occur at any stage of life, leading to complex disorders that are often challenging to diagnose and treat. In the laboratory, we utilize advanced genomic technologies
