Current Role
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. My research and training focus on cancer metastases and targeted therapeutics, as well as the utility of multimodal data for wider translation to the clinic, particularly as applied to pediatric, adolescent, and young adult cancers.
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 serve on the leadership teams of the Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Program and the Data Use and Research Identity (DURI) workstream for the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH).
