New Publication in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health

I first authored an article in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health entitled “Ingestion of Nitrate and Nitrite and Risk of Stomach and Other Digestive System Cancers in the Iowa Women’s Health Study”. We assessed risk of certain digestive cancers and ingestion of nitrate and nitrite from diet and drinking water in a prospective cohort of post-menopausal women in Iowa, USA. This is my first epidemiologic analysis for the Occupational and Environmental Epidemiology Branch at the National Cancer Institute.
