Dr. Kayvan R. Keshari received degrees in Biochemistry, Mathematics and Biomedical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley and University of North Carolina, respectively, after which he completed postdoctoral training at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) in Biomedical imaging and Bioengineering. He is an Associate Member (Associate Professor) at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, with appointments in both the Department of Radiology and the Molecular Pharmacology Program. His lab focuses on the interrogation of metabolic processes and advanced multi-modality imaging. With changes in cancer metabolism as the driving force, the lab’s biochemical investigation is centered on oxidative stress and changes in redox, as well as the rates of biochemical reactions in vivo, which underlie fundamental cancer biology, drive aggressiveness and response to therapeutics.
