Eytan M. Stein, MD - MSK Leukemia Specialist & Early Drug Development Specialist

As a thoracic surgeon for more than 15 years, I have devoted my clinical practice to diagnosing and treating patients with lung cancer, esophageal cancer, mesothelioma, and all other cancers of the chest cavity. In addition to serving as Chief of Thoracic Surgery, I am the Surgical Director of the Thoracic Oncology Program at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

I am a medical oncologist specializing in the care of patients with lung cancer. My research interest lies in developing new therapies for patients with squamous cell carcinomas of the lung. Treatment options for patients with this type of lung cancer havelagged behind those for patients with lung adenocarcinomas. We are, however, beginning to unravel the molecular complexity of this disease, which we hope will herald in a new era of personalized medicine for our patients.

Memorial Sloan Kettering medical oncologist and hematologist Cy Wilkins' practice is dedicated to addressing the hematologic complications associated with cancer and cancer therapy, such as anemia, thrombocytopenia, and thrombosis.
