Deborah E. Citrin, M.D.

Dr. Citrin is a clinician and translational researcher in the Radiation Oncology Branch at NCI. She is a graduate of the Duke University School of Medicine and completed her residency training at the NCI. She is currently a Senior Investigator in the Radiation Oncology Branch. Her research interests include understanding how certain tumors can be resistant to cell killing by radiation and understanding the mechanisms of normal tissue injury from radiation. Dr. Citrin is particularly interested in developing strategies to enhance the capacity of radiation to kill tumor cells while protecting normal tissue from the side effects of radiation treatment. Much of her laboratory work has focused on aging in tissue exposed to radiation through stem cell senescence.
Dr. Citrin is involved in the clinical care of patients with genitourinary cancers (prostate and bladder), gastrointestinal cancers, and thoracic malignancies. Dr. Citrin is board certified by the American Board of Radiology.
