Personal profile
Research interests
Dr. Zolkind's research focuses on utilizing a bench-to-bedside approach for developing novel techniques to treat head and neck cancer. I am working to better understand the molecular pathways that drive tumorigenesis and metastasis and identify how the interactions between the immune system and tumor cells can be harnessed through novel and combination immunotherapies to better treat cancer patients.
Clinical interests
My clinical interest is head and neck surgical oncology and microvascular reconstruction. This includes: benign and malignant tumors, thyroid and parathyroid tumors, salivary gland disorders, head and neck cutaneous malignancy, parapharyngeal space tumors, and reconstruction of head and neck defects.
