Overview of Dr. Young

I am an Attending Physician and Member of the Dept of Medicine at MSKCC on the Adult Bone Marrow Transplant Service in the Division of Hematologic Oncology. I am also Professor of Medicine, Weill Cornell Medical College; and I am Senior Attending Physician and Adjunct Faculty, The Rockefeller University Hospital, all in New York City. My clinical practice includes adults undergoing autologous or allogeneic bone marrow or stem cell transplantation, primarily for hematologic and lymphoid malignancies. My research interests focus on post-transplant and anti-tumor cellular immunity mediated by dendritic cells.
