Exploring Molecular Linkages to Modifiable Risk in Breast Cancer

NCI ’ s Center for Cancer Research (CCR) Grand Rounds Dr. Gardner received his B.S. from Yale University and earned his M.D. and Ph.D. from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine where he studied the regulation of membrane skeletal proteins in the Department of Cellular Biology and Anatomy. He completed residency training in anatomic pathology at the National Cancer Institute and is board certified in Anatomic Pathology. Dr. Gardner has had a long term interest in the cellular and molecular biology of gene regulation and, while at NIH, has been developing strategies to define pathways and mechanisms of transcriptional control in cancers of lymphoid and epithelial origin. Dr. Gardner is a member of the editorial boards of Cancer Research, the American Journal of Pathology, the International Journal of Medical Sciences, the Open Clinical Chemistry Journal, the Molecular Cancer Biology Journal, and the American Journal of Translational Research. He is an elected member of the American Society for Clinical Investigation, and was a recipient of an NIH Director's award in 2007 and 2011. Most recently, Dr. Gardner has served as the Acting Scientific Director of the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities intramural research program. His laboratory studies chromatin-based mechanisms of transcriptional control and how they govern gene expression programs in response to extrinsic and intrinsic environmental clues during health and disease.
