Research Abstract

As Director of Gastrointestinal Radiation Oncology and co-Director of the Tucker Gosnell Center for Gastrointestinal Cancers at MGH, I am integrately involved in patient care and clinical research. My research involves clinical trials with advanced radiation and integration with targeted therapies. I collaborate closely with basic scientists to bring new agents to clinical trial. Additionally, I am interested in biomarkers that predict outcomes to radiation or chemoradiation.
