The Division of Hematology-Oncology at Loyola Medicine is seeking a physician leader at an Associate or Professor ranking for the Coleman Endowed Chief of Hematology and the Blood and Marrow Transplantation (BMT) and Cellular Immunotherapy Program.
The BMT Program at Loyola Medicine has long been a leader in Hematology research and therapy within the Chicagoland area and nationally with longstanding excellence of its Cellular Therapy and BMT Programs.

The BMT Program runs the out-pt High Dose Unit with 12 day hospital beds that afford it the ability to provide day long complex treatments including out-patient transplants on a 365 day basis.
The Loyola Medicine BMT Program was the first in the state of IL to perform CAR-T and continues to be a leader in this field as the only center capable of producing CAR-Ts in-house with its cGMP core lab. The BMT Program is fully accredited by the Foundation for the Accreditation of Cellular Therapy (FACT) and the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP). The center routinely performs allografts from matched related, matched unrelated, and haploidentical transplants and has been a leader in cord blood transplantation for the past twenty years.
The Chief of Hematology, and Director of the Cellular Immunotherapy and BMT Program will provide administrative leadership, management, and quality program supervision for the clinical, research, and procedural activities of this Section of the Division of Hematology-Oncology. The Chief will collaborate with leadership across multiple disciplines and departments at Loyola Medicine to execute a cohesive organizational strategy that aligns with the mission and strategic plan of Loyola Medicine. An attractive package is being offered to include ample laboratory space, start up funding and support staff for a translational Hematology/Cellular Therapy/Transplant research program with the ability to hire junior faculty will be provided to the candidate.
The Chief reports to the Division Chief of the Section of Hematology-Oncology and will work closely with the Cancer Center Director and Chair of Medicine.
