Since 2021, Dr. Miranda has served the Georgia Cancer Center as a clinical researcher. Her primary focus lies in the realm of clinical and translational studies within the field of hematology-oncology, with a particular emphasis on Myeloid Leukemia. She is committed to making a positive impact on the lives of patients and advancing the frontiers of medical knowledge through a blend of scientific inquiry, collaborative efforts, and an unwavering commitment to patient-centered care.
As a clinician and member of an underrepresented group, Dr. Miranda possesses a heightened awareness of the profound disparities in cancer survival that are often driven by Social Determinants of Health. Consequently, she maintains a special interest in meticulously evaluating and proactively addressing any potential disparities in cancer care and research that may disproportionately affect marginalized populations.
