Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Hematologic neoplasms are classified, in the fifth edition of the WHO classification and the international consensus classification, using diagnostic criteria based on clinicopathological, morphologic, immunophenotypic, molecular, and cytogenetic features. The major categories of hematopoietic neoplasms include myeloproliferative neoplasms, myelodysplastic syndromes, myeloproliferative/myelodysplastic neoplasms, acute myeloid leukemia, B cell neoplasms, T cell neoplasms, histiocytic/dendritic cell neoplasms, and stromal-derived neoplasms of lymphoid tissues. In recent years, major advances have been made in our understanding of these neoplasms fueled by advances in genomics and proteomics such as single-cell sequencing and spatial biology. In this Special Issue, we aim to review our current understanding of the major categories of hemopoietic neoplasms, focusing on advances in molecular pathogenesis and implications for diagnosis and therapy.
