Cancer epidemiology, using epidemiologic tools to understand carcinogenesis at the population, individual, tissue and molecular levels to better prevent and control the disease risk and progression. Much of my work includes a focus on nutrition and alcohol. Recent projects include examination of factors associated with mortality after a breast cancer diagnosis, breast cancer epidemiology in Puerto Rico, and examination of reduction of alcohol consumption in relation to cancer risk and mortality. In addition, I am working on a project regarding caregiving and caretaking among those with disability.
