Having been associated with Weill Cornell Medical College in the Division of Hematology and Oncology for over 39 years, I have been able to combine broad clinical interests in hemostasis, thrombosis, immune-based hematologic disorders and anemias with basic research supported by the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Association into platelet and endothelial biology.
During this long tenure I have had the opportunity of participating actively in the American Society of Hematology not only as a member but also as Chairman of the ASH Education Committee and as a member of the ASH Advisory Board; in the American Heart Association as member of the Thrombosis Council and as Chairman of the Eastern Section of the American Federation of Clinical Research and President of the New York Blood Club, as well as being elected to the American Society for Clinical Investigation and the Association of American Physicians and serving on the editorial boards of many scientific journals. I have published over 150 research papers, reviews and chapters. Among my proudest accomplishments has been collaboration with French colleagues at the Institut Pasteur and Institut Cochin in Paris in the development of immortal lines of human endothelial cells that are being used in more than one hundred laboratories worldwide for research into the blood brain barrier.
