About Dr. Yilmaz
Dr. Musa Yilmaz received his medical training from Marmara University School of Medicine in Turkey. His residency was completed at the University of TX Medical School in Houston, TX. Dr. Yilmaz then completed fellowships in both Leukemia and Hematology/Oncology at The University of TX MD Anderson Cancer Center, and Baylor College of Medicine; also, in Houston, TX. He is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Leukemia at MD Anderson Cancer Center.
Dr. Musa Yilmaz has published extensively in the field of leukemia, and particularly, on prospective phase I and II trials of novel therapeutic combinations. He also serves as the Principal Investigator for four, active, clinical trials. Dr. Yilmaz’ primary, research interests have been the role of early response assessment, particularly MRD (Minimal Residual Disease), in patients with acute leukemias and how this information can be used to identify patients at highest risk for relapse and death. In particular, he has published a paper in the American Journal of Hematology on the impact of achieving early MRD negativity in patients with ALL. He has also authored several other papers on the role of MRD in acute leukemias.
