Physicians, nurse practitioners, clinical nurses, social workers and other caregivers offer our patients and their families special expertise, counseling and education in health maintenance, nutrition, and pain management. The Hematology Section currently treats approximately 1800 patients annually with a wide variety of blood disorders. The hematology team providers are recognized for their range of clinical, teaching, research, and clinical trial achievements. The team focuses on genetic diseases that start at birth, some of which are quite rare. They partner with families to care for their children and work with adult providers to assure continued state of the art management and special expertise for patients of all ages with rare genetic blood diseases. The Hematology Section includes the following specialized programs: general hematology; hemostasis and thrombosis; sickle cell disease, thalassemia, and other red blood cell disorders; bone marrow failure; iron overload; white blood cell disorders; epidermolysis bullosa; clinical trials including gene therapy;  and medical care transition

The CBDI is the largest and top-ranked pediatric hematology-oncology program in the western U.S. The U.S. News & World Report ranked the CBDI #7 and CHLA #5 in the nation in 2021-2022. The CBDI has a large clinical trials operation that supports programs in hematology, oncology, and transplantation/cellular therapy. Three leading, international clinical trials consortia are headquartered within the CBDI: Children's Hospital-Acquired Thrombosis (CHAT); Therapeutic Advances in Childhood Leukemia/Lymphoma (TACL); and New Approaches to Neuroblastoma Therapy (NANT). The CBDI is an active member of additional leading consortia including the North American Pediatric Aplastic Anemia Consortium (NAPAAC). CBDI investigators conduct extensive bench-to-bedside research with research funding in FY21 totaling $55 million with $12 million in new awards. The Institute’s hematology investigators are conducting pioneering research into the measurement and management of iron overload, the basic pathology of sickle cell disease, and the treatment of childhood bleeding and clotting disorders.

The CBDI hosts an ACGME-accredited pediatric hematology-oncology fellowship training program and 1-year advanced subspecialty fellowships in Coagulation, Transplantation/Cellular Therapy, Neuro-Oncology, and AYA Oncology.

Administrative and research support including staff, resources and infrastructure will be provided. CHLA and USC are equal opportunity, affirmative action employers.
