88. On the Road with Dr. Geoffrey Shapiro

We return to the Dana Farber Cancer Institute this week as part of our "On the Road" series and interview the multitalented Dr. Geoffrey Shapiro. Dr Shapiro completed his medical training at Cornell University and received his PhD in 1987. His passions lie in early-phase drug development and clinical trials, with a specific flair for cell cycle and DNA repair inhibitor therapeutics. Dr. Shapiro provides an insightful take on drug development, current opportunities, challenges, the world of CDK inhibitors and the future landscape of trials, along with the role of Project Optimus (no, not Optimus Prime!)
