About

My name is Derrick Lee, and I am a cancer epidemiologist and statistician. My primary research focuses on identifying genetic, as well as environmental risk factors for cancer and exploring the interplay between genetic susceptibilities and environmental exposures, particularly in breast and colorectal cancer.

I am interested in epidemiological and biostatistical methodologies, occupational exposure assessment methods, bioinformatics, and statistical learning, particularly in statistical genetics.
