Stanley Hamilton, MD has dedicated his career to cancer research. He added an extra year of residency training to enable a fellowship at St. Mark’s Hospital in London, focusing on colorectal cancer and its associated inflammatory bowel diseases and inherited syndromes. As a pathologist, Dr. Hamilton was especially interested in translation of laboratory findings into the care of patients. He participated in the initial studies that identified mutated DNA in blood and other body fluid, and led studies in his laboratory of genetic alterations as potential biomarkers for prognosis and therapy as some of the first attempts at what is now termed precision medicine.
