BIO
Dr. Marc Greenblatt is a medical oncologist at the University of Vermont Medical Center and a professor of medicine at the Larner College of Medicine as well as Co-Director of the Cancer Genetics and Prevention Program. Dr. Greenblatt's research interests are in interpreting genetic variants in cancer susceptibility genes by using multiple lines of evidence (epidemiology, statistics, tumor pathology, evolution, structure, and function, computational algorithms). He has led projects that have integrated in vitro and in silico (computational) data to interpret genetic variation. Dr. Greenblatt’s current research activities involve interpretation of variants in the DNA mismatch Repair genes that are responsible for Lynch syndrome, the most common form of hereditary colorectal cancer.

Area(s) of expertise
Cancer Genetics, Classifying genetic variants in cancer susceptibility genes, Hereditary Colon Cancer and Polyposis Syndromes
Hereditary Colorectal Cancer and Polyposis: Chair of the InSiGHT-ClinGen Polyposis-Colorectal Cancer Variant Curation Expert Panel, which is refining strategies to classify variants in the APC, MUTYH, SMAD4, BMPR1, STK11, POLD1, and POLE genes.
Refining methods to classify genetic variants through membership in the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) Working Group. The SVI is improving criteria for interpreting and integrating multiple lines of evidence (epidemiology, statistics, clinical phenotype, tumor pathology, gene evolution, protein structure, functional assays, computational algorithms).
