Dr. Grace joined Children's Hospital Boston / Dana Farber Cancer Institute as a Pediatric Resident after receiving both her undergraduate and doctoral degrees from Brown University. She has since gone on to become a fellow in the institution's Hematology/Oncology program and was chief fellow in her final year of fellowship. As Dr. Grace begins her NHF-Baxter fellowship, she will be on staff as a Hematologist at Children's Hospital Boston / Dana Farber Cancer Institute. As an NHF-Baxter fellow, Dr. Grace will spend two years developing advanced skills in clinical hemostasis and clinical trial design. Under the mentorship of Dr. Ellis Neufeld, she will continue her work on several ongoing clinical studies. Dr. Grace is currently the Co-Investigator of a study on the genetic modifiers of chronic ITP. Dr. Grace's goal is to become a clinical expert in hemostasis and thrombosis as well as a productive independent clinical investigator. She hopes to contribute towards improving the treatment, outcomes and quality of life of pediatric patients with bleeding and clotting disorders through a career in clinical research.
