Dr. Logan N. Roof’s expertise is in the treatment of thoracic malignancies. She has a focus in treating mesothelioma, lung cancer and thymic cancers. Her mesothelioma specialty lies in treating patients with the pleural form of the disease that develops in the thoracic cavity.

She serves as a medical oncologist and assistant professor in thoracic medical oncology at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center. Dr. Roof’s research interests are focused on advancing care for people with mesothelioma.
