Dr. Avecilla is a clinical pathologist who specializes in the field of cellular therapy, which uses human cells to treat diseases such as leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and other cancers where blood stem cell transplantation is the treatment of choice. As the Medical Director for the Cellular  Therapy Laboratory Division, I work with laboratory staff management to ensure that all processes and procedures used in the production of cellular therapy products are of the highest quality. I also work closely with my clinical colleagues to ensure that the needs of the patients are met in the most state-of-the-art and cost-effective manner.
