Biography
I am an Associate Professor of Medicine in the section of Medical Oncology within the Department of Medicine, and in the clinic, I see patients with breast cancer. I am also involved in education of students, residents, and fellows here at Yale. Outside of the clinic, I am involved with the COPPER (Cancer Outcomes, Public Policy, and Effectiveness Research) Center within the School of Medicine, with a specific interest in chemotherapy regimens used in the treatment of breast cancer and how they are used in clinical practice.
