About Dr. Cantor
Scott B. Cantor, Ph.D., is a Professor in the Department of Health Services Research at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. He has an adjunct appointment and taught courses and guest lectures in the Department of Biostatistics and Data Science at The University of Texas School of Public Health.
Dr. Cantor is a clinical decision analyst, having received his bachelor's degree from Yale in Applied Mathematics and his doctorate from Harvard in Decision Sciences. From 2003-2004, he was President of the Society for Medical Decision Making, a professional society dedicated to promoting rational and systematic approaches to decision making that will improve the health and clinical care of individuals and assist health policy formation.
Dr. Cantor's research has focused on theoretical issues concerning cost-effectiveness analysis and diagnostic testing, and on clinical issues in cancer prevention, particularly prostate cancer screening and cervical pre-cancer diagnosis.
Scott became an ombuds in 2018, after training in conflict resolution, mediation, and coaching. His goal is to help visitors to the Ombuds Office identify options to help them decide on how to best move forward. Members of the Ombuds Office team follow the Standards of Practice of the International Ombuds Association: Confidentiality, Neutrality/Impartiality, Independence, and Informality.
When not in the office, Dr. Cantor enjoys spending time with his family and playing the piano. He also loves to sing -- he was a finalist in the Anderson Idol talent shows. Jump to the 7:30 mark to view his performance in the 2008 show or the 13:30 mark to view his performance in the 2009 show.
