Research Interest
Our laboratory investigates the pathogenesis of varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection, focusing on the functional roles of particular viral gene products in pathogenesis and virus-cell interactions in differentiated human cells in humans and in Scid-hu mouse models of VZV cell tropisms in vivo, and the immunobiology of VZV infections.

Research Interest
Allogeneic and autologous bone marrow transplantation (experimental and clinical) as a treatment modality for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, multiple myeloma, hereditary disorders, immune defects and selective solid tumors. Development of novel preparatory regimens to prevent the recurrence of the underlying malignancies. Studies for the prevention of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease. Testing of new anti-viral agents to prevent or treat viral infections.

Greenberg, Peter
Academic Appointments
- Emeritus (Active) Professor, Medicine - Hematology
- Member, Cancer Center
- Member, Bio-X
Clinical Focus
- Hematology
- Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Research Interest
Regulation of hematopoiesis in myeloid malignancies with special emphasis on myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Laboratory studies utilize DNA microarrays to evaluate differential gene expression in MDS and AML. Clinical studies focus on using specific biologic targeting agents to treat these disorders.

Research Interest
Clinical research in allogeneic and autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), more specifically, allogeneic transplantation and graft versus host disease. Exploring methods of improving prevention and treatment of GVHD as well as the long term follow-up and/or quality of life of affected patients.

- Member, Cancer Center
Clinical Focus
- Blood and Marrow Transplantation

- Member, Cancer Center
Clinical Focus
- Aplastic Anemia
- Blood Stem Cell Transplant
- Blood and Marrow Transplantation
Research Interest
Investigates the targets of immune responses after human allogeneic stem cell transplantation. BMT patients develop antibodies against minor histocompatibility antigens (mHA) that are associated with chronic graft-v-host disease (cGVHD) and disease remission. Current projects: investigate Ab anti-tumor mechanism, high-throughput serologic identification of novel mHA in the development of GVHD and prevention of disease relapse, and clinical trials of B cell therapeutics for cGVHD.
Negrin, Robert
Academic Appointments
- Professor, Medicine - Division: Blood and Marrow Transplantation
- Member, Cancer Center
Clinical Focus
- Blood and Marrow Transplantation
- Hematology
Research Interest
Our labaratory focuses on the study of immune recognition by T and NK cells with special emphasis on graft vs host disease and graft vs tumor reactions. We utilize both murine and human systems in an effort to enhance graft vs tumor reactions while controlling graft vs host disease. We have developed bioluminescence models in collaboration with the Contag laboratory to study the trafficking of immune effector cells with a special emphasis on NK, T and regulatory T cells.
