Dr. Crompton is an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School and an Attending Physician of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology at Dana-Farber/Boston Children's Cancer and Blood Disorders Center. He is the Principle Investigator of the Crompton Lab where he and his team are harnessing novel genomic and proteomic approaches to improve patient outcomes in pediatric solid tumors. They leverage innovative technologies to determine prognostic biomarkers and validate druggable targets in Ewing's Sarcoma and Osteosarcoma.

In this episode Dr. Crompton breaks down the current state of genomics and personalized medicine and the future for us. We talk about all the things: genomics, liquid biopsies, ct-DNA, etc.
