Maximilian Diehn, MD, PhD

Jack, Lulu, and Sam Willson Professor and Professor of Radiation Oncology (Radiation Therapy)
Clinical Focus
Cancer > Radiation Oncology, Cancer > Thoracic Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Radiation Therapy
Research Interests
My laboratory focuses on two main areas: 1) cancer stem cell biology and 2) novel biomarkers for identifying the presence of malignant cells (diagnostic), predicting outcome (prognostic), and predicting response to therapy (predictive). Areas of study include cancers of the lung, breast, and gastrointestinal system. Clinically I specialize in the treatment of lung cancer and applications of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy and perform both prospective and retrospective clinical studies.

James R. Doty, M.D.

Adjunct Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
Research Interests
My interest for many years has focused on neuro-oncology (brain tumors) and utilizing both surgery and stereotactically focused radiation to treat solid tumors of the nervous system primarily utilizing the CyberKnife.

In addition, I am an expert in complex and minimally invasive spine surgery.

More recently, my interests revolve around understanding the neural, social and mental bases of compassion and altruism using a multi-disciplinary approach.
