Joshua Zeidner is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Hematology/Oncology.
What is your clinical expertise?
Acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and myeloproliferative neoplasms.
Tell us about your current role in the Department of Medicine.
I am an Assistant Professor in the Division of Hematology/Oncology and member of the Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center. I am a clinical investigator and spend part of my time designing and running clinical trials, and part of my time seeing patients in clinic. I also attend on the E1 Hematologic Malignancies Service.
What current project or initiative at UNC are you involved in that you are excited about?
I am excited about the growth of our Leukemia Group within the Hematologic Malignancies subdivision of Hematology/Oncology. We are transitioning to a second Hematologic Malignancies Service (E3) with advanced practitioners and it has been incredibly rewarding to work with our amazing staff for this expansion. Additionally, I am excited about the development of our Immunotherapy Program and the exciting clinical trials that we will have to offer in patients with leukemia.
How do you like to spend your free time?
I enjoy traveling, spending time with my family, music, and sports. I am an avid New York Giants football fan and now that I have made Chapel Hill my home, I enjoy watching (and occasionally attending) UNC basketball and football events.
