overview Dr. Huo’s research interests focus on the genetic, molecular, and environmental factors underlying etiology, prognosis, and treatment of cancers, particularly as they relate to cancer in underserved populations. His research spans across several areas of cancer epidemiology and clinical epidemiology, including: 1. Genetic epidemiology of breast cancer, particular in women of African ancestry with the use of genome-wide association and whole genome sequencing approach. 2. Environmental and lifestyle factors for breast cancer etiology in African women and risk prediction model building, and strategy for cancer screening. 3. Health disparity in breast cancer outcomes in multiethnic patient cohort study with multi-dimensional data. 4. Investigation of the utilization and effectiveness of cancer treatment in real world using Big data. 5. Prenatal exposure to diethylstilbestrol and clear cell adenocarcinoma of vagina and cervix, as well as other health conditions in later life. 6. Epigenetics and non-coding RNAs, such as microRNAs in relationship to cancer prognosis and survival.
