Jonathan received his undergraduate degree (Biological Anthropology) from Harvard College in 1986, his Ph.D. (Biochemistry) from UCSF in 1993, and his M.D. from UCSF in 1995. He completed his residency training in Clinical Pathology at UCSF in 1997. After residency training, Jonathan pursued postdoctoral research training as a Howard Hughes Physician Fellow in the laboratory of Dr. Patrick Brown at Stanford University, where he applied DNA microarrray technology to study human cancer. In 2001, Jonathan joined the Department of Pathology at Stanford, where his laboratory focuses on characterizing genomic imbalances and gene expression alterations responsible for the development of human cancer. In addition to his research laboratory, Jonathan directs the Stanford Tissue Bank, a Stanford community resource to facilitate access to human tissue specimens and technologies for biomedical research.
