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.
