Dr. Pomeroy is the Bronson Crothers Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School and Chair of the Department of Neurology at Boston Children\u2019s Hospital. He graduated from Miami University and was the first graduate of the M.D., Ph.D. program of the University of Cincinnati. He trained in pediatrics at Boston Children\u2019s Hospital and in child neurology at St. Louis Children\u2019s Hospital\/Washington University. In 1989, he won the Child Neurology Society Young Investigator Award for work done as a postdoctoral fellow with Dr. Dale Purves. Dr. Pomeroy\u2019s lab focuses on understanding the molecular and cellular bases of medulloblastomas and other embryonal brain tumors. Using integrative genomics, his group has found that medulloblastomas are quite heterogeneous, consisting of multiple molecular subgroups that each have unique gene expression and DNA copy number signatures reflecting the mechanisms that regulate tumor growth. The subgroups also have unique outcomes, which enables the use of molecular signatures to more accurately predict outcome. Molecular classification of medulloblastomas has been adopted by the World Health Organization and is being used in clinical trial design throughout North America and Europe. Dr. Pomeroy has received numerous awards, including the Sidney Carter Award, the Daniel Drake Medal, the Compassionate Caregiver Award of the Kenneth Schwartz Center, and membership in the National Academy of Medicine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
