UW’s Gillespie to Deliver NCI Rising Scholars Seminar
The NCI Rising Scholars: Cancer Research Seminar Series highlights the research of early-career cancer investigators supported by NCI. The next presentation in the series will take place virtually on Thursday, Aug. 21 from 2 to 3 p.m., ET.
Dr. Erin Gillespie, associate professor in radiation oncology at the University of Washington, will deliver a talk, titled, “Radiation for High-Risk Asymptomatic Bone Metastases: An Implementation Science Perspective.”
Gillespie, who is also a faculty member of the Hutchinson Institute for Cancer Outcomes Research, specializes in radiation treatment for patients with breast cancer and metastatic disease. Her work focuses on developing and ensuring fair access to evidence-based treatments for patients with cancer. She is the principal investigator of a recently approved phase 3 cooperative group trial and leads active funding from Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and NCI, including a K08 Mentored Clinical Scientist Research Career Development Award.
