James C. Dickerson, MD MS
Instructor, Medicine - Oncology
BioDr. Dickerson is a medical oncologist in the Division of Medical Oncology at Stanford University School of Medicine, specializing in treating patients with breast cancer. His research studies how health policy can improve health equity and eliminate cancer disparities. To achieve this goal, his research group pursues three key objectives: (1) developing financially sustainable breast cancer care programs, (2) analyzing large databases to identify health policies that can improve equity, and (3) conducting clinical research to discover the most effective ways to deliver high-quality care.
Dr. Dickerson's research has a domestic and an international arm. His global oncology research leverages long-standing collaborations in Nigeria and Belize. Both arms focus on the same objectives of achieving financially sustainable and equitable cancer care.
Dr. Dickerson received his undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt University and graduated magna cum laude from the University of Mississippi Medical Center. He completed his internship and residency in Internal Medicine at Stanford University, followed by fellowship training in Hematology/Oncology at Stanford.
