Her research interests include: 1) improving risk stratification through the identification of novel risk factors/biomarkers. This includes evaluating inflammatory markers, genetic and epigenetic alterations, lifestyle factors, and coexistent chronic diseases. 2) identification of early biological changes associated with disease progression, 3) evaluation of various strategies to improve health outcomes in breast cancer survivors 4) evaluation of prevention and early-detection strategies in both the general population and at-risk groups (i.e genetic susceptibility). Recently she has become focused on developing strategies to reduce existing disparities with respect to breast and ovarian cancer prevention and treatment.
