Professional Statement

Dr. Rajat Bhattacharya is a faculty member in the Michael E. DeBakey Department of Surgery at ÌÇÐÄÊÓÆµ of Medicine. His major research interests are focused on understanding mechanisms of resistance to therapies and developing novel strategies to overcome failure of systemic therapeutics in gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies with a focus on colorectal cancer (CRC). Another area of focus is in understanding the role of the tumor microenvironment and therapeutic interventions on immune modulation in CRC and other GI tumors. Dr. Bhattacharya’s research program integrates tumor biology, high-throughput combinatorial drug discovery and preclinical animal models with the goal of improving outcomes in patients with GI malignancies.
