Graeme J.
Dougherty, Ph.D.
Research Professor, Radiation Oncology
Dr. Dougherty's research efforts are
focused on the development of novel means of improving the
efficacy of radiation therapy. Currently, particular emphasis is
being placed on identifying and characterizing small molecule
drugs and molecular medicines that target radiation resistant
hypoxic cells within solid tumors and in evaluating the
therapeutic potential of selective vascular damaging agents. He
works closely with other members of the Department to ensure the
rapid translation of laboratory findings into the clinic in order
to improve patient care and outcome.
Dr. Dougherty is also an enthusiastic educator and has
responsibility for coordinating the teaching of radiobiology to
the Radiation Oncology Residents and other interested parties. He
also provides laboratory resources and practical input to help
facilitate the pursuit of independent research initiatives within
the Department.
