Summary

The Bednarski lab studies molecular mechanisms that regulate early hematopoeisis and B cell lymphopoeisis. In particular, we are interested in understanding how signals induced by DNA damage activate cellular programs that promote normal differentiation and suppress leukemogenesis. Our goal is to understand the programs that drive normal hematopoietic development and how these pathways are corrupted in leukemia.
