Research Interests
My research focuses on identification of groups at elevated risk for breast and ovarian cancer, and development and evaluation of techniques for early cancer detection and risk reduction. This work is highly collaborative within the Stanford Division of Epidemiology and with the Northern California Cancer Center.
Ongoing projects include analyses of ethnic differences in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, an early-stage breast cancer chemoprevention trial, and computer-based simulation modeling to evaluate new approaches to cancer screening and prevention.
