Allison Dennis, Ph.D.

Current Role

As a senior biomedical informatics program officer of the NCI Data Ecosystems Branch, I lead a team of research professionals and support staff within the Cancer Research Data Commons (CRDC). We collaborate in developing and implementing strategies focused on the creation and ongoing support of large-scale data sharing, management, and analysis tools to accelerate NCI-funded scientific research. My current research interests include advancing the capabilities of artificial intelligence for health research and building data capacity and infrastructure by securely and appropriately linking health-related data across federated environments.
