James W. Young, MD - MSK Bone Marrow Transplant Specialist

I am a board-certified hematologist-oncologist, and my clinical activity and research focus on stem cell transplantation for patients with blood disorders. I trained and worked for many years at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, where I was Deputy Chair of the Department of Stem Cell Transplantation and Cellular Therapies. In May 2010, I joined the faculty of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to lead the Adult Bone Marrow Transplant Service and served as Chief until February 2020.

I am a board-certified oncologist and hematologist, and work as part of a multidisciplinary team caring for patients with hematologic disorders. I have a special interest and expertise in treating patients with disorders that arise in white blood cells called plasma cells, including multiple myeloma and light chain (AL) amyloidosis.
