Research Abstract
Dr. Harris's clinical research interests involve the treatment of lung cancer, sarcomas, and spine tumors. His endeavors are focused on the combination of newer radiation treatment techniques/technologies with systemic therapies and ablative therapies in order to improve the efficacy of cancer treatment and reduce side effects. As a faculty member at UC Irvine, Dr. Harris has received funding for his investigator-initiated trials focusing on novel treatments of lung tumors as well as sarcomas.
His health services research interests are in health-related quality of life, financial toxicity, cost analysis, and comparative effectiveness analysis with large claims-based databases.

Short Biography
Dr. Harris is a clinician-investigator at UC Irvine with primary clinical interests in lung cancer, sarcoma, spine tumors, and head and neck cancers. Dr. Harris has been the Director of Thoracic Radiation Oncology since 2019.
After graduating from Johns Hopkins University with a Bachelors of Science in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, he completed a Masters degree in Chemistry at Cambridge University with funding through the Churchill Scholarship Foundation. Thereafter, Dr. Harris completed medical school training at Stanford University. His Radiation Oncology training was at Stanford University, where he conducted clinical research and developed expertise in health services and cost-effectiveness methodologies.
