What's the
SUNY Upstate Difference?
Researcher Improves Bone Marrow Transplant Success Rate in MiceAt SUNY Upstate Medical University, researchers are dedicated to unlocking the mysteries of human health and illness.
William Kerr, a former Newman Scholar of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, brought more than $3.8 million in NIH funding this year to SUNY Upstate. Kerr investigates the role a novel gene (LRBA) plays in cancer cells, and studies a particular enzyme (SHIP) involved in the rejection of bone marrow and organ transplants. More >
