The division of hematology has a strong research track record with over 250 research manuscripts in the last 3 years and over 40 actively accruing clinical trials.

In 2025, the SCD program expanded from one to two clinical sites. The program has developed individualized emergency department care plans, expanded education across the health center, increased access to disease-modifying therapies, advocacy within the local, state, and national community, and active participation in multiple clinical trials. The program has a robust relationship with our local community-based organizations and has a collaborative patient and community engagement through our SCD Community Advisory Board.  We are a recognized center for the National Alliance of Sickle Cell Centers and a site for the American Society of Hematology Research Collaborative.
