About

Dr. Robert Coleman Lindsley, M.D., PhD. is a physician scientist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, specializing in research topics associated with MDS. His career has developed in conjunction with his interest in how disease evolves, and in turn, how new and existing therapies can interrupt the process of disease progression. The clinical research focus he has chosen in addressing problems with MDS has led to work in two important areas; examining how the fundamental properties of MDS change over time, and the features of MDS that cause resistance to therapy. Dr. Lindsley’s efforts include longitudinal studies of individual MDS patients over time to track how their disease progresses, as well as large studies aimed at identifying shared genetic characteristics that may indicate patients’ responsiveness or resistance to therapies offered.
