Biography
Dr. Morrow received his bachelor’s degree in biology with highest honors at Pennsylvania State University. He attended medical school at Case Western Reserve University, where he was selected as an HHMI-NIH Research Scholar. During this fellowship James worked in the pediatric oncology branch at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), studying the molecular mechanisms of solid tumor metastasis. James went on to complete a PhD, splitting research time between Case Western and NCI. His research showed that gene enhancer dysregulation is a key driver of osteosarcoma metastasis. James completed his pediatric residency in the Boston Combined Residency Program at Boston Children’s Hospital. He then completed his Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Fellowship at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. James is currently an attending physician treating children and adolescents with cancer and hematologic diseases. He is also completing research in the lab of Bradley Bernstein at DFCI, studying the developmental origins and evolution of pediatric solid tumors.
