Molecular Markers of Environmental Cancer Risk (EnviroMark) is a multidisciplinary research program that leverages biomarkers within population-based studies to uncover how environmental, occupational, and lifestyle factors influence cancer risk. The program examines a broad range of exposures, including air pollution, light-at-night, night shift work, sleep patterns, and obesity, to identify the molecular 'marks' associated with these risk factors and understand the biological pathways through which they contribute to disease. EnviroMark integrates cutting-edge molecular and epidemiologic methods to link biological changes to real-world exposures, providing a deeper understanding of cancer etiology. By translating these findings into actionable strategies, the program seeks to advance early detection, guide targeted prevention interventions, and inform public health policies aimed at reducing the population burden of cancer.
