Daniel Comiskey

Daniel Comiskey, MD, is an Instructor at UMass Chan Medical School in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, with an additional affiliation at T.H. Chan School of Medicine's Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences department. Based at Bridgewater State Hospital, his research spans molecular genetics, endocrinology, and cancer biology.

• Williams College - BA in Philosophy
• University of Connecticut - MD

His work focuses on genetic predisposition to thyroid and other cancers, RNA splicing mechanisms, and molecular pathways in tumorigenesis. Publications highlight splice factors like SRSF2/MDM2 interactions, telomere biology in TINF2 mutations, and GWAS analyses for thyroid cancer risk variants.

Key publication areas include endocrinology, genetics, molecular biology, and neoplasms. Recent studies explore PDPR gene variants in thyroid cancer (2024), insulin receptor splicing in rhabdomyosarcoma (2022), and splicing network alterations in pediatric cancers (2013-2020).
