Biography
Dr. Reis-Filho an affiliate member of the Human Oncology and Pathogenesis Program and the Computational Biology Center. Dr. Reis-Filho's research program focuses on the development of an integrated morphological and molecular classification for breast cancers by focusing on special histological types and the identification of novel therapeutic targets for specific subgroups of breast cancer patients, through an integrative analysis of data derived from pathology, massively parallel sequencing and functional genomics.

Research Interest
His project has the potential to molecularly classify rare breast cancers and identify new molecular targets to tailor the treatment of breast cancer patients.He has received numerous awards, including the CL Oakley Lectureship and BACR Translational Research Award in 2007, and Ramzi Cotran Young Ivestigator Award in 2010. Dr. Reis-Filho is the youngest ever Fellow of The Royal College of Pathologists to have become a member by published works. He has alo published over 400 peer reviewed articles.
