New York Pathology Oncology Group

NYPOG was established in 2017 to promote collaboration among physicians and scientists in the New York metropolitan area who are interested in pro-metastatic tumor microenvironments and the effect of systemic therapy on cancer cell dissemination and metastatic seeding. Our members' expertise in pathology, oncology, surgery, epidemiology, cancer biology, optical physics, engineering, and biophysics encourages vertical scientific integration whereby the discoveries from each of the subspecialties contribute towards the completion of a common goal. NYPOG also enables the evaluation of large cohorts of patients and their samples, which is essential to translate scientific discoveries into patient care.
