Timothy Cloughesy, MD

Dr. Timothy Cloughesy's research focuses on clinical trials in brain cancer using targeted molecular therapies with novel clinical trial design. He has developed a brain cancer bioinformatics database which combines clinical outcomes, imaging and molecular analysis to enhance translational research. His goal is to use molecular biology to provide individualized care for brain cancer patients.
