Hi guys, I am going to be going to medical school next year and find radiation oncology to be very interesting. Right now I am working in research and am finding it enjoyable. I know a radiation oncologist who integrates basic science research into his practice at the City of Hope Cancer Center. He does normal radiation therapy and then targeted radioimmunotherapy, in which he designs radioactive antibodies specific to different cancer cells and develops his own treatments through basic scientific research. This sounds awesome to me, and I have read up some about radiation oncology but would like to learn more. Can one rotate through this specialty in medical school? Could anyone offer up a helping hand?
