Research Interests:
Dr. Felgar's research interests relate to the classification and pathobiology of hematopoietic and lymphoid malignancies and the application of normal immunobiology as it may relate to hematopoietic tumors, with a particular interest in T and NK cell malignancy and myelodysplasia. He has expertise in both flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry.
