Scientific Interests
Dr. Nianogo's interest lies in the identification, optimization and design of prevention and treatment interventions for preventing chronic diseases including cancers. In particular, his research has focused on the prevention of obesity--a known risk factor for cancer. In addition, he has recently applied for several small cancer-related grants in the hopes of contributing to the growing research in the field of cancer prevention.
