Biography
Justin Taylor, MD, is a physician-scientist devoted to improving outcomes for patients with hematologic malignancies. The Taylor lab studies the role of recurrent mutations in hematologic malignancies and how to target them with novel therapeutics using animal modeling, molecular biology, and single-cell genomic techniques. Dr. Taylor holds a faculty position in the Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology where he sees patients with hematologic malignancies. He completed residency in Internal Medicine at the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Hematology/Oncology fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center followed by post-doctoral training in the lab of Omar Abdel-Wahab, MD. He is the principal investigator on grants sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (K08), American Society of Hematology, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Edward P.

Research Interests
The Taylor lab seeks to understand the molecular pathophysiology of genetic alterations that drive hematologic neoplasms and how those targets might be leveraged for effective anti-cancer therapy. Currently, the major focus of the lab is on the cancer-associated alterations that occur in the nuclear export protein, XPO1. -
