Adrienne A. Phillips, M.D., M.P.H. is an AssociateProfessor of Clinical Medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College and Associate Attending Physician at the New York-Presbyterian Hospital. Dr. Phillips cares for patients with all types of hematologic malignancies (blood cancers) with a special interest in treating lymphoma patients requiring stem cell transplantation, and reducing cancer disparities by improving outcomes among underserved and minority populations, especially among Latino and Caribbean-Americans.Dr. Phillips received her undergraduate B.A. and medical degree with honors from Brown University. She received her M.P.H. from Harvard University. She then received her internal medicine training at New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center, where she also completed her fellowship in Hematology and Oncology. At Weill Cornell Medicine in New York City, Dr. Phillips specializes in treating patients with HTLV-Related Adult T-Cell Leukemia Lymphoma (ATLL) through stem cell transplantation. She is also involved in clinical and translational research specifically dedicated to finding cures for ATLL, and has developed the largest database of patients with ATLL in New York. Dr. Phillips serves as principal investigator of several clinical trials that explore novel therapies for this disease. Her research has been presented nationally and internationally. She has co-authored numerous publications in journals such as Cancer, Journal of Blood Medicine, and Leukemia and Lymphoma. She has also served as an oncology consultant in Africa, the Caribbean and Latin America in order to share cancer treatment best practices, train physicians, and provide updates and recommendations based on recent advances in the field.In recognition of her achievements, Dr. Phillips is the recipient of the American Society of Hematology's prestigious Harold Amos Medical Faculty Career Development Award, The Network Journal's "40 Under 40" Achievement Award, and she has appeared on The Dr. Oz Show. She is also a journal reviewer for Leukemia and Lymphoma.

Dr. Himisha Beltran is an Associate Professor of Medicine in the Division of Medical Oncology. Her clinical focus is in caring for patients with prostate cancer. As Director of Clinical and Translational Researcher of the Englander Institute for Precision Medicine (ipm.weill.cornell.edu), she also serves as a liaison for several bench-to-bedside translational research efforts at Weill Cornell aimed towards bringing precision medicine and next generation molecular assays directly to patients. Dr. Beltran's lab is focused on studying treatment resistance in prostate cancer. Her lab has been particularly focused on the development of small cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer, an aggressive subtype of prostate cancer. By studying the RNA and DNA of these tumors, she is learning how these cancers evolve, identifying molecular alterations to target with drugs, and developing clinical trials to bring new effective therapy to patients. She is also involved in writing and leading several clinical trials, and participates in national and international trials through the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology Foundation and National Cancer Institute (NCI). Dr. Beltran is the recipient of numerous awards, including a Prostate Cancer Foundation Young Investigator Award, AACR Women in Cancer Research Scholar Award, Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology Clinical Scholar Award, Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation Clinical Investigator Award, and an American Society of Clinical Investigation (ASCI) Young Physician Scientist Award.
