Bradley E. Aouizerat is a Professor at the College of Dentistry, New York University (NYU) , with a strong focus on oral-systemic health, genomics, and translational research. His work bridges dentistry, immunology, and chronic disease, particularly in populations affected by HIV, cancer, and health disparities. Education: BS in Microbiology/Molecular Genetics – University of California at Los Angeles PhD in Microbiology/Molecular Genetics/Immunology – University of California at Los Angeles MAS in Master of Advanced Science Research in Clinical – University of California at San Francisco His research interests span epigenetics, gene expression, pain mechanisms, microbiome, sleep, and inflammation , with a strong emphasis on biomarker discovery and minority health. He has led studies on DNA methylation in oral cancer, cytokine profiles in HIV, and the role of mitochondrial genetics in diabetes. His work often integrates machine learning and longitudinal cohort data from major studies like the Women’s Interagency HIV Study (WIHS) and Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS). His recent publications (2021–2025) reflect a broad and impactful research program, with studies in oral cancer, HIV persistence, depression in chronic disease, lymphedema, sleep disruption, and gut microbiota . These works highlight his interdisciplinary approach, combining molecular biology with clinical epidemiology and behavioral science. Key themes include epigenetic regulation of pain and opioid tolerance, neurodegenerative-like changes in cancer, and social determinants of inflammation . Scientific Awards and Recognition: Excellence in Research Mentoring Faculty Teaching Award (2013) Most Dedicated Mentor Award, PMCTR Fellowship Program (2009) Early Career Investigator Award, Bayer Healthcare International (2006) National Liver Scholar Award, American Liver Foundation (2004) Multiple early career and mentoring recognitions (2004–2006) He is an active mentor and collaborator , frequently co-authoring with junior researchers and leading interdisciplinary teams. His work has been supported by NIH-funded initiatives, including the Roadmap K12 program. He is a member of professional societies such as the American Heart Association, American Liver Foundation, and American Society for Human Genetics . He is involved in clinical and translational research teams focused on improving outcomes in cancer, HIV, and chronic pain. His lab and collaborators utilize advanced genomic and bioinformatic tools to uncover mechanisms linking biological systems with patient-reported outcomes. Future work is likely to expand on precision biomarkers, minority stress interventions, and real-time symptom detection using machine learning .
