Todd Golub

Todd R. Golub is an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the Harvard Medical School, the Charles A. Dana Investigator in Human Cancer Genetics at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and a founding member of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. He is a world leader in applying genomic tools (such as DNA microarrays) to cancer research, having made important discoveries in the molecular basis of childhood leukemia.

He graduated from New Trier High School in 1981 and then received his B.A. in 1985 from Carleton College and M.D. in 1989 from the University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Medicine.
