Prof. Dr. George Calin, cancer biology

He is Professor at the Department of Experimental Therapeutics and Co-Director of The RNA Interference and Non-coding RNA Center, at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, USA. Furthermore, he is Professor at the Department of Leukemia, Division of Cancer Medicine, within the same institute. Dr. Calin received both his M.D. and Ph.D. degrees at Carol Davila University of Medicine in Bucharest, Romania.

Dr. Calin was the first to discover the relationship between microRNA and cancer and published a seminal paper (> 5000 citations) in 2002. He opened and led an entirely new field of research and now is clear that miRNA is causally involved in oncogenesis, and likely to be the most informative molecular category for cancer diagnosis and screening.
