About Hematology & Oncology
The U-M Medical School Department of Internal Medicine Division of Hematology and Oncology is the largest subspecialty unit in the department. Division faculty, students and laboratory personnel occupy more than 38,000 square feet of space in several locations within the University of Michigan Medical School campus.
Patient Care
We care for patients with benign and malignant disorders of the blood and lymphatic organs, as well as for patients with most types of solid tumor malignancies. We have dedicated coagulation, hemophilia and thrombosis clinics, plus multiple experts in myeloproliferative disorders. In addition, we have numerous state-of-the-art specialty clinics and programs at the Rogel Cancer Center to evaluate, diagnose, treat, and manage cancer and hematologic disorders, along with several support programs for patients and their families.
Education
Our Hematology/Oncology Fellowship Training Program combines well-rounded clinical training with the opportunity to work with world-class investigators in a collegial environment. Additionally, many of our faculty are involved in the education of students interested in scientific research careers through a number of different programs, and also establish both formal and informal mentorship relationships with undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral students.
Research
We pride ourselves on being on the leading edge of research, and are dedicated to providing our patients with the very best care and treatment. Our faculty are involved in bench to bedside research, from basic laboratory experiments to conducting experimental clinical treatments, with the goal of providing better treatment options for patients with cancer and hematologic disorders. Our division has been extremely successful in obtaining awards and grants to support our research interests.
