Dr. LaQuita Jones is a Pediatric Oncologist, physician-scientist, and member of the leukemia/lymphoma at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital. Upon entering her pediatric hematology/oncology fellowship, Dr. Jones knew she would focus her efforts on oncology, and she later decided to join a basic science laboratory as a second-year fellow. Now, she is fully immersed as a physician scientist. Her clinical interest and research focus is acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Her laboratory is interested in novel resistance mechanisms to targeted therapies in AML, and her group is currently focused on resistance in relapsed/refractory FLT3- mutant AML. In addition to drug resistance, Dr. Jones also has an interest in pharmacoequity, and she is co-leading the health equity efforts within the Division of Oncology at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital.
