Overview

As a physician and scientist, my ultimate goal is to translate research findings from bench to beside to improve patient care. I focus my research and clinical work on treating blood and bone marrow cancers. Most of the patients in my clinic are blood and bone marrow transplant patients and patients with plasma cell diseases such as multiple myeloma, amyloidosis, POEMS syndrome, and Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. The research interests in my lab are on the development of new approaches to enhance hematopoietic stem cell engraftment and reconstitution following blood and bone marrow transplant.

Dr. Kang is highly rated in 9 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Multiple Myeloma, Smoldering Multiple Myeloma, Plasmacytoma, Bone Graft, and Bone Marrow Aspiration.
