Dr. MacVittie, is recognized internationally as an expert on the effects of radiation on the hematopoietic and gastrointestinal systems in large animal models and their treatment, in vivo, with supportive care and selected organ-specific medical countermeasures against acute and delayed effects of acute radiation exposure. He earned M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in radiation biology at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Buffalo and has more than 40 years of experience as a radiobiologist in the field of experimental hematology. He has published 184 peer-reviewed manuscripts and 47 chapters in books or proceedings. He has co-edited 5 books published from meetings organized on radiation effects and treatment of the ARS. He has served as a member of NATO Radiation Research Study groups. His early work demonstrated the efficacy of supportive care and hematopoietic growth factors on increasing lineage-specific cell recovery and survival in myelosuppressed and lethally irradiated large animal models.
