Dr. David Scadden is the Gerald and Darlene Jordan Professor of Medicine at Harvard University. He and Professor Douglas Melton founded and jointly direct the Harvard Stem Cell Institute.
-
Lingli He, Ph.D Postdoctoral Fellow
Lingli is interested in exploiting the metabolic vulnerabilities of malignant myeloid cells to develop small molecules for therapy. Through the study of malignancy, she also seeks to determine what normal cells must protect to preserve the integrity of the blood system.

Trine Ahn Kristiansen, PH.D Postdoctoral Fellow
Trine’s research questions are focused on the interplay between a changing bone marrow niche and blood disease. How are the responses at this interface changed with past and upon present stress exposures? Can niche heterogeneity shape clone-specific response patterns with impact on disease progression and infection?
-
Dan Li, PH.D Postdoctoral Fellow
Dan is interested in understanding the mRNA translational signatures of hematopoietic development and diseases. Her primary aim is to identify the precise mRNA translation mechanisms that leukemia uses to exploit its preference in translational machinery and translating mRNA for new therapeutic targets.
-
Kameron A. Kooshesh, M.D. Resident Physician
Kameron is a physician-scientist who led a MGB-wide study that demonstrated the importance of the thymus in the adult immune system after joining the Scadden lab in 2019. Kameron’s current work focuses on the role of the adult thymus in cancer, autoimmunity, and infection.
-
Jun Xia, Ph.D Postdoctoral Fellow
Jun joined the Scadden laboratory in November 2023 and is focused on novel methods for converting hematopoietic progenitors into targeted delivery systems for complex biologic information. Her long-term goal is to use fundamental hematopoietic biology to design novel therapeutics.
-
Karin Gustafsson, Ph.D Instructor
Karin’s research is focused on how hematopoietic tissues respond to and regenerate after assaults. Her primary interests are repair of the thymic microenvironment after bone marrow transplantation and bone marrow niche responses to chronic inflammation.
