Wade T Iams MD

Dr. Iams’ primary research interest is identifying innovative applications of blood biomarker analysis in patients with lung cancer. He has helped develop infrastructure to perform key validation research on new technologies for blood biomarker analysis, both during his residency training at Vanderbilt University and his fellowship training at Northwestern University. Results from the early components of this work have been published and presented at multiple national meetings. As a junior faculty member, he looks forward to continuing this work and keeping Vanderbilt at the leading edge of the field of blood biomarker development. He is also interested in medical education and has served as a Chief Resident during his internal medicine training at Vanderbilt and Chief Fellow during his fellowship training at Northwestern University. He plans to continue to engage in medical education activities and advance the medical education mission of Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
