About me

Dr. Travis Zack is an oncologist who cares for patients with cancers of the digestive system, including colon and rectal cancer. He has a particular focus on pancreatic cancer.

Zack's research centers on developing and ethically applying the latest advances in artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the lives of cancer patients. He uses AI to maximize how researchers learn from and synthesize the information in a patient's medical records and from their tumor's genetic mutations to precisely personalize care. He believes that because each cancer journey is unique, every patient can teach their providers something new that could better the lives of others.

Zack earned his medical degree and a doctorate in biophysics at Harvard Medical School. He completed a residency in internal medicine and a fellowship in hematology-oncology at UCSF.
