Aaron Griffin MD PhD (He/Him)

Resident Physician (PGY1)

Summary

I am a physician-scientist continuing my clinical and scientific training at the NYU Langone Medical Center through the Clinical Investigator Track of the internal medicine residency. I completed my doctoral research through the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in the Califano Laboratory of Systems Biology where I leveraged tumor transcriptomic data and novel computational algorithms to identify and target transcriptional regulatory proteins (i.e., Master Regulators) which coordinate phenotypes of resistance to targeted therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors in thoracic malignancies. I completed my medical doctorate at the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons at New York Presbyterian Hospital. My career goal is to combine clinical oncology and computational biology to advance personalized cancer diagnosis and treatment strategies as an independent physician-scientist.
