Welcome to the website of Michael Baum, retired Breast Surgeon and current Director of the Clinical Trials Group at University College London, where he is also Prof. Emeritus of Surgery and Visiting Prof. of Medical Humanities.
With a remarkable career and outstanding contributions to medicine, we hope to provide you with some overview of the medical achievements and contributions of Prof. Baum. We are also proud to provide links to previous lectures and interviews, a Biography and an abridged Curriculum Vitae.
“Michael Baum’s contribution to improving health has extended far beyond his outstanding skills as a breast cancer surgeon. He has pushed the boundaries of breast cancer research, with new treatment strategies that have improved survival, has developed innovative approaches for caring for the whole person, and has challenged practices that lack evidence.”
