His research focuses on epigenetics, immuno-epidemiology, and exposure-related cancers, particularly head and neck and bladder cancers. He investigates DNA methylation biomarkers, immune profiles, and gene-environment interactions to understand individual susceptibility and cancer mechanisms.
Recent publications highlight trends in DNA methylation analysis for cancer risk prediction, immune cell deconvolution in tumor microenvironments, and environmental exposure impacts on epigenetic aging. His work spans biomarker development, viral oncogenesis, and health disparities.
Key contributions include establishing the Center for Environmental Health and Technology and advancing methods for epigenetic immune profiling in clinical trials. He collaborates on large consortia like the INHANCE Consortium and Women's Health Initiative.
