Well-versed in the field of hematology/oncology, Dr. Shouse is affiliated with the City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center in Duarte, California. He specializes in lymphoma, hematopoietic cell transplantation, and clinical cellular immunotherapy.
The doctor’s fascination with molecular biology led him to hematology and oncology as a career. He focuses his research on targeted therapies for lymphoma that recurs or resists chemotherapy treatment. He cares deeply about each of his patients, and he’s eager to continue his work at City of Hope.
“In no other field can a set of molecular changes unique to one tumor, unique to one patient, be identified within a matter of days to allow for the optimal chance at cure. In no other field, can the immune system be utilized to make a previously incurable disease something that can be conquered” expressed Dr. Shouse.

He earned his Doctor of Philosophy degree in cell, molecular and developmental biology at the University of California, Riverside.
