Associate Professor of Pathology, Urology, and Oncology, Department of Pathology, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MarylandDr. De Marzo currently is a Professor of Pathology, Urology and Oncology at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins and The Brady Urological Research Institute. He received his undergraduate, medical and graduate degrees from the University of Colorado. He completed a residency in anatomic pathology at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 1997 and since 1998 he has been a practicing board certified anatomic pathologist, focusing extensively on prostate pathology. His research at Johns Hopkins focuses on the molecular mechanisms involved in cancer initiation and progression, as well as, the role of inflammation in prostate cancer. He also performs clinical diagnostic, prognostic and predictive biomarker research in urological cancers and directs the prostate SPORE pathology core at Johns Hopkins.
