Kenan Onel MD, PhD

Professor of Oncology, Chief, Clinical Genomics, Departments of Medicine and Cancer Prevention & Control

Kenan Onel MD, PhD

I am a physician/scientist with more than 20 years’ experience in Oncology, Genetics and Genomics. As a physician, I am Board-certified in Pediatric Hematology/Oncology and have spent my career as a clinical cancer geneticist caring for children, adults, and families at high risk for cancer due to genetic predispositions or family history. As a scientist, I am known internationally for my work on the genetic contribution to cancer risk and response to therapy, and am recognized as a leader in functional genomics, an emerging field integrating genetic and laboratory investigations that is yielding profound new insights into human health and disease. I have a long history of NIH and foundation funding, and has published almost 100 articles, reviews and book chapters.
