Professor Paresh Vyas
Professor of Haematology, Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine; Consultant Haematologist
About
The aim of Professor Vyas' research group is to better understand the populations of leukaemia cells in acute myeloid leukaemia at functional, genetic, epigenetic and molecular levels, eventually at a single cell level, to improve our basic understanding of leukaemia initiation and propagation. The ultimate aim is to translate this knowledge to improve survival rates in patients.
