Emma Groarke: Somatic Mutations and Chromosomal Abnormalities in Bone Marrow Failure
Emma Groarke, Associate Research Physician at the National Institutes of Health, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, published in Blood Journals, adding:
“Really excited to see our National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute How-I-Treat now published in this week’s issue of Blood Journals Portfolio !
Our aim was to provide a practical clinical guide to the interpretation of chromosomal abnormalities and somatic mutations in the context of both immune and germline bone marrow failure. Such somatic alterations can be incorporated into the diagnosis and surveillance for patients with BMF!
We also specifically provide a (hopefully) useful guideline for interpreting somatic mutations / abnormal karyotype before and after IST for SAA
Thanks to my colleagues Bhavisha Patel and Fernanda Gutierrez-Rodrigues, PhD my forever co-authors !”
