Erik Blomain

Erik Blomain, MD, PhD serves as a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Sidney Kimmel Medical College, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, focusing on clinical-translational research to advance radiation therapy practices and patient outcomes.

His research spans Radiation Oncology, Cancer Research, and Medical Physics with specific emphases on brachytherapy waste reduction, thyroid carcinoma guideline development, sarcoma radiotherapy response mechanisms, virtual reality patient education tools, and total body irradiation techniques. Key projects include clinician-led waste audits, evolutionary pressure analysis in undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, and organ-sparing radiotherapy optimization.

Dr. Blomain leads the Blomain Laboratory, which develops cost-effective virtual reality platforms for radiation therapy education and implements validated toolkits for clinical waste reduction. The lab prioritizes practical innovations that enhance treatment precision while improving patient engagement and resource efficiency in oncology settings.
