Assistant Professor, Fels Cancer Institute for Personalized Medicine
Research Program
Treatment Philosophy
We conduct epigenome-wide studies in colorectal cancer (CRC) and assisted reproductive technology (ART). We are interested in studying disparities (racial and age of onset) in the incidence and outcome of CRC. In the ART project, we are looking into various clinically modifiable factors that affects DNA methylation in children conceived through ART. We are also conducting longitudinal studies in the ART population.
Educational Background
- PhD, Genetics, Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences, India
Research Interests
- Epigenetics
- Colorectal cancer
- Assisted reproductive technology
