Research Summary

Dr. Brian Schulte is a hematologist-oncologist who cares for patients with sarcomas, rare cancers that develop in connective tissues (such as bone, muscle or cartilage) and can affect people of all ages. Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, he strives to ensure patients receive the best possible comprehensive care. In research, Dr. Schulte studies novel medications, alone and in combination, to treat sarcoma.
After earning a bachelor's degree in engineering at Duke University, Dr. Schulte earned his medical degree at the Medical College of Wisconsin and completed a residency in internal medicine at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. He completed a fellowship in hematology-oncology at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, where he served as chief fellow.
