About Dr. Ohanian
As Assistant Professor Clinical Faculty in the Department of Leukemia at MD Anderson Cancer Center, she is board-certified in Internal Medicine, Medical Oncology, Hematology and Integrative Medicine. Her focus is clinical care and research of patients with acute and chronic leukemia. She is studying toxic and essential metals in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and other hematologic malignancies. She is the PI of an ongoing study (PA15-0302) to analyze results of toxic and essential metals and copper isotopic abundances in leukemia patients and controls in cohorts at MD Anderson and at Hospices Civils de Lyon (Hopital Sud in Lyon France). She has strong collaborations with world-leaders in leukemia, hematopathology, metal toxicology, geochemistry, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and isotopic abundance analysis. To solidify her understanding of metal toxicology, she has collaborated with expert-toxicologist Dr. Arch Carson of the School of Public Health and Dr. Francis Albarede, Dr. Philippe Telouk of The Geochemistry Lab at École Normal Supérieure de Lyon, France, and Dr. Cin Ty Lee of Earth Sciences at Rice University. She is initiating a clinical trial of metal monitoring and metal detoxification during AML therapy (AML).
