My research interests include developing investigator-initiated trials for patients with lung and head/neck cancers, with a particular focus on relapsed small cell lung cancer and thyroid malignancies. I am also interested in identifying predictors of the development of bone metastases in lung cancer and in optimizing the management of patients with bone metastases.
