The Cell Signaling Program is one of the basic research groups of the Division of Experimental Hematology at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. Dissecting the complex signaling networks that control cells at the molecular level is the priority of this program. By using mouse model systems to delineate the mechanisms of signal transduction, faculty in the program hope to understand processes that are critical for the survival, proliferation, differentiation, engraftment, and movement of hematopoietic cells and for the development of human diseases related to hematopoiesis including cancer and leukemia. The goal of the Cell Signaling program is to apply the mechanistic information of hematopoietic signaling to the development of therapeutic strategies that can be useful in the subsequent translational research.
