Professional History

After completing combined MD and PhD training at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Siegel moved to Boston for pediatric residency at Boston Children's Hospital and Boston Medical Center in the accelerated research pathway. He then remained at Boston Children's Hospital for pediatric infectious diseases fellowship training, and joined the division faculty in 2022. He has a clinical interest in immunocompromised patients, particularly those who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT). He conducts research in the laboratories of Drs. Seth Rakoff-Nahoum and Leslie Kean on the impact of the gut microbiome on outcomes in HCT patients.
