Jason Carter, MD, PhD

Dr. Jason Carter

Hometown:

Poway, CA

Graduate School:

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory

Medical School:

Stony Brook University MSTP

Additional Education:

Undergraduate: University of California, San Diego

Bio:

A southern California native, I studied philosophy at UCSD before developing an interest in computational biology as a master’s student. I then moved to New York for medical and graduate school where my research focused on the use of machine learning and statistical modeling to better understand the T-cell receptor repertoire and cancer genomics. As an aspiring surgeon-scientist, the combination of excellent, well-rounded clinical training with outstanding research opportunities and mentors in an unbeatable location made UW an easy decision.

Personal Interests:

Swimming, backpacking, skiing, Padres baseball, Seahawks football.

Clinical Interests:

Surgical oncology, computational immunology, genomics.

Professional Activities:

Alpha Omega Alpha
