个人简介
Research: The organizing hypothesis undergirding most of my body of research is that colorectal cancer is an evolutionary discordance disease; i.e., a disease initiated and/or promoted due to mismatches between our modern diets and lifestyles and our bodies that were evolutionarily most adapted to other diets and lifestyles. My investigations, both observational and interventional, in these regards have involved assessing various nutrients for which modern intakes/exposures are low or high, exposure pathways, and larger dietary/lifestyle patterns. Intertwined with much of this work has been the development of treatable biomarkers of risk for colorectal cancer to illuminate the relevant mechanisms of the exposures on colon carcinogenesis in humans. Particular foci within my past and current work in these somewhat overlapping areas include: calcium, vitamin D, oxidative balance, inflammation, and diet and lifestyle pattern scores and risk for colorectal neoplasms; and the development, validation, and application of treatable normal colon tissue and circulating biomarkers of risk for colorectal neoplasms.
Teaching: I have taught classes in introductory epidemiology, cancer epidemiology, epidemiologic writing and presenting, epidemiologic grant writing, and advanced designing and implementing epidemiologic studies. I have also mentored numerous masters, doctoral, and post-doctoral level trainees, and served as the Department of Epidemiology’s Director of Graduate Studies for our Masters Programs, the Department of Epidemiology Applied Practical Experience (APE) advisor, and the RSPH Executive MPH (EMPH) Program Epidemiology Thesis Advisor.
Service: I served as program leader for cancer prevention and control in the cancer centers of two universities before being recruited to Emory where I led the establishment of our cancer center’s prevention and control program and served as its leader for eight years until 2015. For many years I served as a senior editor for the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, and at intervals throughiout my academic career served on the Board of Directors for the American Society of Preventive Oncology.
