Bio

Dr. D'Amico is a professor of Radiation Oncology at Harvard Medical School and is the chief of Genitourinary Radiation Oncology at the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. He received his PhD in Radiation Physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1986, and then his MD from the University of Pennsylvania in 1990, where he also served as a resident and then chief resident in 1994. He has gained international recognition for his work in detection, staging, and treatment of prostate cancer with over 140 peer-reviewed publications, and has co-edited four textbooks in Urologic Oncology. His prostate cancer research is funded by federal grants from the NIH, NCI, DOD and MA DPH.
