About Dr. Eric Albert Mellon:

Doctor Eric Mellon is an academic radiation oncologist with a focus on central nervous system and gastrointestinal malignancies. He holds a PhD in magnetic resonance physics from the MD/PhD program at the University of Pennsylvania(2011), and his goal is to use his clinical and technical expertise to advance the field of radiation oncology. During his residency at Moffitt Cancer Center(2016 in radiation oncology), he produced seven first-author research articles in various cancer sites, including the largest series of stereo-tactic radiotherapy for pancreas cancer. His basic research interests involve using MRI to probe the tumor micro-environment during therapy to evaluate early treatment response and he has extensive technical capabilities in developing MRI techniques, building custom hardware, and running custom simulations and data reconstructions. He currently leads several clinical trials and other studies of new treatments for brain and spine tumors. In addition, he attends and presents at conferences with the broader community of brain tumor specialists to discuss the latest treatment developments. Dr. Mellon is also the co-leader of the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center Neuro-Oncology Site Disease Group, where he leads and helps patients through numerous clinical trials for brain tumors. His Ph.D. in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used to develop and implement new advanced imaging techniques for brain and spine tumors to improve treatment safety and cure rate. During his career he has written over fifty peer-reviewed journal articles to advance radiation treatment and imaging for a variety of cancers.
