# Daniel Przybysz

Dr. Daniel Przybysz (born March 25, 1988) is a Brazilian Radiation-Oncologist. His practice is mainly focused on lung cancer treatment and high technology approaches toward better patient care
Przybysz has a medical degree from the Federal University of Parana, Brazil jointly with Harvard Medical School. He graduated in 2013 with high-honors after doing his internships in Oncology-related rotations.
After spending some time at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Przybysz began a Radiation-Oncology program at the Brazilian National Cancer Institute. He graduated residency and was invited to start a position as Visitor Researcher in Radiation-Oncology at the Washington University School of Medicine.
Przybysz also works as an Oncology Reviewer for UpToDate and as an author, editor and reviewer for lung-related articles at the International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology and Physics, contributing on high-level reviews for medical content.
