Kirchstein NRSA Institutional Research Training Program in Cancer Control and Epidemiology focuses on transdisciplinary research on the behavioral and biological determinants of cancer (e.g., tobacco, alcohol, and drug use; physical activity; diet; obesity; adherence to cancer screening, detection, and treatment; STIs) and prevention efforts that target these risk factors. Research among fellows and training faculty is diverse and spans multiple areas.
