Professor of Orthopaedics and Oncological Sciences
University of Utah, Huntsman Cancer Institute
Salt Lake City, Utah, United States

Kevin studied English literature at Harvard and medicine at Johns Hopkins. After training in orthopaedic surgery at the University of Iowa and in surgical musculoskeletal oncology at the University of Toronto, he came to the University of Utah Department of Orthopaedics as a faculty surgeon. In parallel to his surgical practice providing care for pediatric and adult bone and soft-tissue sarcomas, five years of mentored scientific training with Mario Capecchi led to the establishment of Dr. Jones’ independent laboratory at Huntsman Cancer Institute. His National Cancer Institute-funded laboratory studies the epigenetics of transcriptional regulation in sarcoma, using mouse genetic models of sarcomagenesis. He holds the L. B. and Olive S. Young Presidential Endowed Chair for Cancer Research and is a Professor with tenure in the Department of Orthopaedics, as well as an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Oncological Sciences.
