Dr. Nathan Pennell received his Ph.D. in neuroscience in 1998 and his M.D. in 2002 from the University of Florida College of Medicine in Gainesville, FL. He then moved to Boston to do his internal medicine internship and residency training at Brigham & Women’s Hospital, and completed his medical oncology fellowship at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, also in Boston. While there, he developed an expertise in lung cancer, mesothelioma, and thyroid cancer. He moved to the friendly midwest in 2008 to continue with this focus at the Taussig Cancer Institute at the Cleveland Clinic.
Dr. Pennell specializes in the treatment of thoracic malignancies with a focus on lung cancer. His research interests include clinical trials using novel therapies, with a goal of facilitating the movement of new treatments from the laboratory to the clinic. GRACE is pleased to welcome Dr. Pennell as a faculty member.
