Stanley Hamilton, formerly of MD Anderson Cancer Center, was named chair of the Department of Pathology at City of Hope, and Alexey Danilov was named associate director of City of Hope’s Toni Stephenson Lymphoma Center.
Hamilton said his goal is to bring access to state-of-the-art specialized pathology to every patient at every City of Hope satellite center, as well as improving and enhancing the biomarker data used in clinical trials, and further integrating digital pathology into the overall informatics of the institution.
Danilov brought his independently-funded lab to City of Hope’s Toni Stephenson Lymphoma Center. Danilov researches treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and many forms of lymphoma.
Danilov is focused on identifying cell proteins—some that promote cancer growth, some that inhibit it—learning how they deteriorate, and finding drugs that can affect the process.
