During my Fellowship at the University of Texas, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, I participated in research looking at 4DCT-generated ventilation imaging.  More recently, I was the Primary Investigator of the FLAIR clinical trial, randomizing patients with advanced lung cancer to standard radiotherapy versus functional lung avoidance using helium-based ventilation MRI.  I am currently heavily involved in the design and clinical implementation of the SIGNAL trials, a suite of studies looking at how we can best integrate stereotactic radiotherapy (often called SBRT or SABR) into the treatment of breast cancer. 

I actively support collaborative research, both locally and internationally, and this has led to authorship on a number of important publications, including RTOG 0417 and RTOG 1203.  Even more importantly, I enjoy teaching students and residents.  I am happy to be a part of such a large and talented team at Western, and I know that my colleagues and I look forward to providing advanced, effective oncologic care to the people of our community.
