Dr. David Tran
Research in the Tran lab focuses on understanding the molecular mechanism of how cancer develops, progresses, and resists treatments through an integrated approach from clinical observations to systems and computational biology, and to animal models and quantitative molecular validation, with the ultimate goal of returning to human patients to develop novel, safe and effective anti-cancer therapeutics.
David Tran, MD, PhD, joined the University of Florida faculty in the spring of 2015. He currently serves as Chief & Associate Professor. Prior to his arrival, he was the director of the adult neuro-oncology section in the oncology division and an assistant professor in the Department of Medicine at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri.
