DrDilankaDe Silva

I am a medical oncologist with a strong focus on breast, lung, and complex cancers, dedicated to uncovering the underlying drivers of disease through precision and genomic medicine.

My Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) from the University of Melbourne, completed in collaboration with the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre and my alma mater, the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC, New York), combined clinical oncology with hands-on genomic experimentation - bridging advanced science with real-world care.

I currently hold a public appointments at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre & Royal Melbourne Hospital, where I integrate cutting-edge research with compassionate, personalized treatment. True to the ethos of my training at Memorial Sloan Kettering, I remain deeply committed to treating what I believe is the most important cancer - “YOUR CANCER.”
