Lindsey Roeker, MD
Hematologic Oncologist
Memorial Sloane Kettering Cancer
Lindsey Roeker is a clinical researcher and member of the chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) program within the leukemia service at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, NY. She hails from Wisconsin, attended medical school at Mayo Clinic School of Medicine, and completed Internal Medicine Residency at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. She was a fellow and chief fellow at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and completed her training in July 2020. She was recognized for her contributions to teaching and research with awards including the John Mendelsohn Housestaff Teaching Award and American Society of Hematology Research Training Award for Fellows. She has since joined faculty at MSKCC where her clinical research interests are in novel treatment approaches and minimization of toxicity for patients with CLL. She is further involved in a consortium of investigators who aim to use real world data to address unanswered questions in the care of patients with CLL and collaborates with translational scientists to uncover drug resistance mechanisms and immune repertoire perturbations that predict toxicity and response to CLL-directed therapy.

Urvi A. Shah, MD
Hematologic Oncologist
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Dr. Shah is a Clinical Investigator and an Assistant Attending on the Myeloma Service at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and a member of the Junior Faculty Council. She completed fellowships in hematology/oncology at Montefiore Medical Center, and in cancer immunotherapy by MSK and the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy in New York. She is board certified in Internal Medicine, Hematology and Medical Oncology.
Her clinical and translational research focuses on nutritional and metabolic factors in plasma cell disorders as well as immune therapies. She is studying the link between nutrition and myeloma via immune, epigenetic and microbiome mechanisms. Her research includes clinical retrospective projects, clinical prospective trials, and translational collaborative research. She opened the first nutrition trial in plasma cell disorders to date in 2021 (NUTRIVENTION study) that is currently enrolling. She is the principal investigator (PI) of four investigator-initiated trials and a co-PI / site PI of several others.
She is supported by the NCI Paul Calabresi K12, Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy and International Myeloma Society Career Development Awards.
