Molecular Pathologist
St Jude Children's Research Hospital
Following the completion of his medical degree at Kasr Alainy School of Medicine in Cairo, Egypt, Dr. Eldomery pursued a postdoctoral research fellowship in Mendelian genetics at the Department of Molecular and Human Genetics at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) in the laboratory of Dr. James R. Lupski. He subsequently obtained his combined anatomic and clinical pathology residency at the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at Indiana University School of Medicine and completed his molecular genetic pathology fellowship training at the Department of Pathology and Immunology at BCM. Dr. Eldomery has joined the Department of Pathology at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital as a molecular pathologist faculty.
During the past ten years, Dr. Eldomery's work has led to I) identifying ten rare novel disease-gene associations and II) underscoring the implementation of germline reanalysis in clinical molecular diagnostic service to improve the molecular diagnostic yield. His current research focuses on studying inherited cancer syndromes, including bone marrow failure syndrome, improving the curation of somatic and germline genomic variants and the applications of artificial intelligence in clinical genomics.
