Research Abstract

My research focuses on environmental risk factors of cancer, specifically breast cancer, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and lung cancer. I am studying the relationship of exposure to organochlorine chemicals with both breast cancer and NHL and the association of diesel exhaust and other sources of fine particulate matter with lung cancer mortality.
