About

Dr. Batlevi is a Medical Oncology Fellow at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. She completed her MD, along with a PhD in Cancer Biology, at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and a residency at Mount Sinai Medical Center before beginning her fellowship. She became interested in oncology at an early age, noting that, at age twelve, she answered a class essay on “What do you want to be when you grow up?” with “A cancer doctor.” She notes that her patients inspire her continued pursuit of lymphoma research. “Our task as clinical researchers is to understand the journey each patient experiences and work to develop drugs and therapies that minimize the footprint lymphoma leaves on their lives,” she says. Dr. Batlevi adds that she hopes to keep her future career goals focused on patient care. “Foremost, I hope to be a doctor providing sound guidance for my patients. Through a patient centered lens, I hope to focus my research on concepts which have the highest yield for managing or curing lymphoma.”
