Dr. Baschnagel is actively involved in translational and clinical research. I work closely with basic scientists, physicists and clinicians with the goal of fostering new ideas and translating research findings into the clinic. He has experience studying combinations of radiation and novel radiosensitizers and biomarkers of treatment response in patients and in preclinical models. His current work focuses on improving treatment of non-small cell lung cancer with a focus on brain metastases. He is actively involved at the regional and national level, and I am site PI for multiple national clinical studies here at UW.

Randall Kimple, MD, PhD, FASTRO, MBA
Dr. Kimple’s lab has established one of the largest tissue repositories of head and neck cancer patient-derived xenografts and have helped define best practices for the establishment, passage, and use of these valuable resources. Patient derived xenografts are established in mice directly from patient biopsies and are thought to better represent the biology of their human source than model cell lines grown in plastic tissue culture plates.
