Current Role
As the director of NCI’s Office of Data Sharing, my team and I lead NCI’s approach to the development and implementation of data sharing and public access policies to NCI’s mission. To better advise NCI programs and leadership on cancer data policy matters that are significant to the larger research community, I serve on several NIH, federal, and international advisory committees. Currently, I am the co-lead of the Data Use and Research Identity (DURI) workstream for the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH).
