Faculty Research Interests:
INTRODUCTION
The following are brief descriptions of research areas of interest by individual faculty members,
organized by discipline. The final category — Other Areas of Research — includes a number of
other important fields such as public health, informatics, epidemiology, cancer genetics, etc.
Each of the faculty members listed here has volunteered to mentor our residents. (There are
likely to be many others at Weill Cornell, MSKCC, Rockefeller, and HSS who are equally
enthusiastic about the possibility of working on research projects with our residents, but who
have not yet responded to our requests for information.) Most of the descriptions of research
areas were provided by the faculty members directly. Descriptions are followed by the names of
recent residents mentored, if any: these residents are also cross-referenced alphabetically at the
end of the guide, and we encourage you to contact any of them who might be able to provide you
with further insight. Contact information is listed as provided by faculty members.
