Clinical Interests

My personal research program focuses around advanced cancer care, both with peritoneal malignancy but also palliative surgery. We are currently working to understand the Canadian context in peritoneal malignancy and will be working towards a Pan Canadian Database. This will integrate synoptic reporting and AI to achieve prospective data collection. We are creating a palliative surgical program which will be a first of its kind in Canada, and will serve to provide guidance to other sites interested in creating something similar.I am also involved in a surgical clinical trial in melanoma and have a large merkel cell carcinoma database with Dr Carolyn Nessim.
