Angela G Fleischman

Dr. Angela G Fleischman is Professor and Vice Chair of Research in the Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology and Oncology at UC Irvine School of Medicine. Her research focuses on inflammation-driven hematologic malignancies, particularly myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), where she investigates microbiome interactions and cytokine networks. She serves as Associate Dean for Physician-Scientist Development.

Research interests center on:

• Microbiome modulation of cancer inflammation
• MPN disease mechanisms and symptomatology
• Cytokine profiling in hematologic disorders
• Clinical translation of microbiome therapeutics

Her publications analyze gut microbial communities in MPN patients, identifying specific taxa associated with reduced inflammation and TNF-α correlations. Work demonstrates 1.7% microbiome variance attributable to disease status.
