He completed residency training in anatomic pathology at the National Cancer Institute and is board certified in Anatomic Pathology. Dr. Gardner has had a long term interest in the cellular and molecular biology of gene regulation and, while at NIH, has been developing strategies to define pathways and mechanisms of transcriptional control in activated T-cells. Dr. Gardner is a member of the editorial board of the American Journal of Pathology and was recently elected to the American Society for Clinical Investigation.
