Furthering insights into disparate cancer outcomes: an integrative approach

The Center for Genetic Epidemiology is hosting an in-person and virtual seminar with Dr. Lindsay Collin, PhD (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/myncbi/lindsay.collin.1/bibliography/public/. Dr. Collin earned her PhD in epidemiology from Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University. Her dissertation work focused on molecular determinants of breast cancer recurrence, and multilevel contributors to racial and ethnic disparities in breast cancer mortality. Dr. Collin is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah, with research focusing on molecular and ovarian cancer epidemiology. Her current K99/R00 award seeks to understand patterns of ovarian cancer recurrence and mortality, as well as to evaluate gene expression signatures in their association with ovarian cancer recurrence. Dr. Collin also has methodologic interests in validation substudy design, quantitative bias analysis, and Bayesian statistical approaches to answer epidemiologic questions.
