Erica Warner

Yerby Postdoctoral Research Fellow

Department of Epidemiology

My research area is cancer epidemiology with a focus on breast cancer.  My doctoral dissertation research focused on understanding variation in incidence, time to diagnosis and stage by age at diagnosis and race/ethnicity.  I am currently beginning research on the relationship between obesity and risk of fatal breast cancer as well as examining non-traditional breast cancer risk factors and their relationship to intrinsic breast cancer subtypes.
