Application Title:

Unraveling the developmental path from altered hematopoietic stem cells to leukemia in Down syndrome

Public Abstract:
Research Objective

Our goal is to map altered Trisomy 21 developmental hematopoiesis to understand the first steps of leukemia initiation in Myeloid Leukemia of Down syndrome

Impact

We will provide critical knowledge of how Trisomy 21 hematopoietic stem cell development is altered and the factors that predispose to leukemic transformation before birth
