Joseph Geradts

Joseph Geradts

Adjunct Professor in the Department of Pathology

Dr. Geradts' primary research focus is on the molecular pathology of breast cancer. His laboratory uses genomic profiling strategies to identify novel candidate breast cancer genes. Dr. Geradts is also interested in biomarker development. He directs the Tissue Core of Duke's Breast Cancer SPORE and collaborates on numerous breast cancer related research projects with other investigators at Duke and elsewhere.
