Current Role
Current Role
As the Associate Director for Informatics and Data Science Program, I lead efforts at CBIIT to shape informatics and data science strategies and foster collaboration within NCI and across NIH and the cancer research community. Additionally, I am pursuing a robust research agenda in descriptive epidemiology and etiology of brain tumors as an intramural senior investigator in NCI’s Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) Trans-Divisional Research Program. Thus, as both an active researcher and administrator, I have insight into how data can be translated into real-world solutions to help diagnose, prevent, and treat cancer.
