Biographical Sketch

Dr. Moore is ABMG board certified in both Clinical Cytogenetics and Clinical Molecular Genetics, completing fellowships at Cedars-Sinai/UCLA and OHSU respectively, and is a fellow of the American College of Medical Genetics.  Dr. Moore received his M.S. in Biology from California State University, and his Ph.D. in Environmental Toxicology from the University of California.  He was a Career Development Fellow with the Medical Research Council (MRC) Radiation and Genome Stability Unit in Harwell, UK, the Gray Laboratory, and the MRC Molecular Hematology Laboratory (U. Oxford), where he developed chromosomal assays and targeted radiation techniques for studying long-term effects of radiation exposure, also a focus of his Ph.D. research.  Dr. Moore had a short fellowship at City of Hope developing tools for chromosomal microarray analysis of single cells. Presently, his laboratory interests include chromosomal microarray analysis for postnatal, prenatal and oncology applications and the development of next-generation sequencing panels rare genetic disorders; the overarching goal being to provide genomic tools to guide personalized medicine into the future.  Dr. Moore joined the faculty of Oregon Health & Science University in 2009.
