Hi, I'm Dr. Jake Lee, a medical oncologist and cancer genomics researcher at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. 

I specialize in lung cancer, using targeted drugs and immunotherapy to attack the specific genes that make a tumor grow. In my lab, I study how cancer changes over time so we can find new ways to stop it. 

At MSK, this research is a part of everything I do for you. It allows me to take what we learn in the lab and bring it directly to you in the clinic, matching you with the most promising therapies for your specific case. 

My goal is to make the science behind your treatment feel clear and approachable. When you leave our visits, I want you to feel encouraged and know that you can do this. We will work together to build a plan that makes sense; one you feel truly confident in.
