معرفی
Allison Campbell, MD, PhD is an active Assistant Clinical Professor of Therapeutic Radiology at Yale University School of Medicine. She provides clinical care at the Smilow Cancer Hospital Care Center in Greenwich, CT, specializing in breast cancer treatment and radiosurgical approaches that require coordination with neurosurgical teams. Her clinical practice focuses on delivering precise radiation therapies designed to minimize side effects while effectively addressing tumors across all cancer stages.
Dr. Campbell received both her MD and PhD from Yale University School of Medicine. She completed her residency training in Yale's Department of Therapeutic Radiology, where she served as chief resident, and subsequently completed a Radiosurgery Fellowship offered jointly by the Departments of Therapeutic Radiology and Neurosurgery at Yale School of Medicine. Her doctoral work focused on immunobiology, specifically studying fundamental immunobiological pathways that establish and break self-tolerance.
Dr. Campbell's research centers on the interaction between radiation therapy and the immune system, particularly in patients with metastatic cancer. Her publication history reveals an evolution from early work on autoimmune diseases like lupus to more recent focus on cancer immunotherapy. The 15 most recent publications demonstrate consistent themes in radiation-immune interactions, with increasing emphasis on lung cancer treatment, radiosurgery techniques, and combination therapies involving immunotherapy. Her work spans both basic science investigations and clinical applications, reflecting her dual MD/PhD training.
- MD/PhD Award from Yale (2015) - awarded to an outstanding member of the graduating class showing excellence in both research and clinical activities
Dr. Campbell actively participates in clinical research as a sub-investigator for multiple trials, including studies on MRI brain surveillance versus prophylactic cranial irradiation for small-cell lung cancer (MAVERICK trial), dose-deescalated stereotactic body radiotherapy for centrally located lung cancer, and adjuvant radiotherapy for head and neck cancers. Her research integrates laboratory findings with clinical applications to improve patient outcomes in radiation oncology.
She is affiliated with the Center for Breast Cancer at Yale Cancer Center and works within the Therapeutic Radiology department's research infrastructure, which includes medical physics, radiobiology, and clinical research facilities. Her collaborative work with immunologists and cancer researchers demonstrates integration across Yale's research ecosystem.
