She received her Ph.D. in Epidemiology from the University of Pennsylvania and her M.P.H from the George Washington University. Dr. Lynch is interested in multilevel cancer studies, particularly developing empiric methods, to address the complex, multifactorial nature of cancer. She studies the independent and joint effects of neighborhood exposures and biomarkers on cancer outcomes. She is interested in multidisciplinary and translational research efforts that can take etiologic findings from multilevel studies and translate them into improved interventions that can impact both the patient and the community.
