About Me

Dr. Christopher Seet is a hematologist and oncologist subspecializing in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, including hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, cellular therapy, and clinical trials of novel therapeutics. Dr. Seet received his undergraduate degree in Biological Science at the University of Chicago; medical degree at the University of Sydney, Australia; and PhD in Cellular and Molecular Pathology at UCLA. Dr. Seet completed internship and residency in Internal Medicine at Loyola University Medical Center in Chicago, and Hematology/Oncology fellowship at UCLA. Dr. Seet has an active basic science and translational research program in developmental immunology and cellular immunotherapy. His research focuses on human T cell and dendritic cell tumor immunology, and the development of engineered stem cell-based approaches to cancer immunotherapy.

Dr. Seet is a Broad Stem Cell Research Center Clinical Fellow, recipient of a UCLA KL2 Translational Science Award, and a previous UCLA STAR program fellow. He is a member of the American Society of Hematology and American Society of Clinical Oncology.

  • Bone Marrow Transplant
  • Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

    Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL): Introduction

    Leukemia is cancer that starts in the bone marrow. This is where new blood cells are made. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a type of leukemia that starts in the lymphoid cells in the bone marrow. These are cells that normally help the body fight infection.

  • General Hematology

    Hematology

    Hematology is the study of blood and blood disorders. Hematologists and hematopathologists are highly trained healthcare providers who specialize in diseases of the blood and blood components. These include blood and bone marrow cells. Hematological tests can help diagnose anemia, infection, hemophilia, blood-clotting disorders, and leukemia.

  • Multiple Myeloma

    Multiple Myeloma: Introduction

    Multiple myeloma is cancer that starts in your bone marrow. Specifically, it starts in plasma cells. In multiple myeloma, normal plasma cells go through a series of changes. This can eventually cause excess cell growth. It can also cause tumors to form in your bones.

  • Myeloid Metaplasia

    Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): Introduction

    Leukemia is cancer that starts in the bone marrow, which is where new blood cells are made. The bone marrow is a thick, sponge-like tissue in the center of certain bones. Read on to learn more.

  • Stem Cell Transplant

    Hodgkin Lymphoma: Stem Cell Transplant

    A stem cell transplant uses young blood cells, called stem cells, to replace bone marrow that has been destroyed by cancer treatment. It is a complex treatment and can cause serious side effects. Here's what you need to know.
