Ronald Hoffman, MD, is the Albert A. and Vera G. List Professor of Medicine, Professor of Medicine (Hematology and Medical Oncology), and Director of the Myeloproliferative Disorders Research Program. He founded this program in 2007 and has developed it into one of the most effective and well respected programs in the world dealing with myeloproliferative disorders. His interest in this group of blood cancers stemmed from his time as a fellow in Hematology at Mount Sinai (1974-1977.), where he worked with numerous Mount Sinai faculty including Drs. Ralph Zalusky, Esmail Zanjani, and Lewis Wasserman. After holding administrative positions at several other institutions, Dr. Hoffman retuned to Mount Sinai in 2007 to work in the laboratory and the clinics in order to focus on translational research in blood cancers. He continues to care for patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms on a daily basis.
