Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is a great honor to serve as the Guest Editor for this Special Issue of Children, entitled “Advances in Molecular Research in Pediatric Hematology”. Pediatric Hematology covers research, diagnosis, and treatment of blood disorders in children including anemia, clotting disorders, leukemia and lymphoma, and rare genetic disorders such as thalassemia and hemophilia.
The ever-increasing use of molecular research in clinics has led to significant improvements in prognosis and treatment outcomes. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) have enabled the identification of novel genetic mutations and biomarkers associated with various pediatric blood disorders. Additionally, advancements in gene therapy and CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing offer promising therapeutic avenues.
The aim of this Special Issue is to explore advancements in molecular research that enhance our understanding of blood disorders in children. We invite investigators to submit original research articles and review articles that will inspire ongoing efforts to deepen knowledge in this challenging field.
Please submit your research to this Special Issue.
Dr. Praveen Kumar
Guest Editor
