Research Abstract

I joined the faculty at Dana-Farber in 2009 after completing my fellowship at our program. I specialize in the treatment of breast cancer and see patients in the Susan F. Smith Center for Women's Cancers. My research focuses on improving the care of vulnerable patient populations who are often under-represented in clinical trials to date and who often have worse cancer outcomes compared with other patients with breast cancer, including older women and minority women. I am also interested in novel therapeutics and am the Principal Investigator for several trials in the adjuvant and metastatic disease setting.
