- General Info
- I initially pursued a career in cancer research, but I quickly realized that I wanted to care directly for patients to make a more immediate difference in their lives. As the director of thoracic medical oncology at Perlmutter Cancer Center, I work to bring promising new therapies to people who have lung cancer., My clinical care and research focus on early phase clinical trials. My goal is to understand how and why a person may or may not respond to therapy by evaluating certain markers—genetic changes, proteins, and other features—in blood or tumor tissue., Cancer affects each person differently, so I develop an individualized plan that best fits each person I care for. I collaborate with other scientists and physicians at NYU Langone to design studies that can better define how treatment can be personalized so each person gets the maximum benefit from it.
