Investigator Emeritus, BC Children's Hospital

I am a clinical hematologist interested and involved in clinical and collaborative scientific studies in areas such as inherited bleeding disorders including hemophilia and von Willebrand disease, hemoglobinopathies such as thalassemias and sickle cell disease, and in immune cytopenias such as immune thrombocytopenic purpura.

Pediatric haematological disorders also provide the unique opportunity to investigate genetic mutations and to understand the pathophysiology of these disorders, thus shedding light on the normal physiological functions of these systems.
