April marked the culmination of a nearly 20-year effort by some of our Duke Radiation Oncology faculty to bring a radiotherapy product to market.

Kyle J. Lafata, PhD, has been named the Thaddeus V. Samulski Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology, effective April 1, 2023.

Our Department was proud to participate in ASCO's Medical Student Rotation for Underrepresented Populations (MSR) program.

We are pleased to announce that these fantastic trainees will be joining the Duke Radiation Oncology team.

Congratulations to our faculty, staff and students who have submitted abstracts for the AAPM Annual Meeting and Exhibition.

 

Congratulations to resident Abhishek Kumar, MD, MAS, who received an ASCO Conquer Cancer Foundation Genitourinary Cancers Symposium Merit Award.

Congratulations to Catherine Sellers, MSN, AGPCNP-BC, RN, lead nurse practitioner for Wake County Radiation Oncology, who received the DCI Superstar award.

We're proud to have Nicole Larrier, MD, MS, represent Duke Radiation Oncology on ASTRO's Health Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (HEDI) Council.

The Duke Radiation Oncology residency program consistently prepares trainees to be compassionate, capable and independent practitioners after graduation. One strength of the program has been developing residents into confident and skilled practitioners of complex brachytherapy procedures.
