I am pleased to welcome Dr. Mehdi Damaghi, our newest member to the Department of Pathology!
Dr. Damaghi earned his PhD in Cell Biology and Genetics from the Max Planck Institute in Dresden, Germany, and completed a postdoctoral research fellowship at the Department of Cancer Imaging and Metabolism, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute. Prior to his recruitment to Stony Brook, in partnership with the Stony Brook Cancer Center, Dr. Damaghi served as Research Scientist in the Department of Cancer Physiology at the H.
