Mia Hashibe, PhD, received her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology/Japanese at UCLA and her MPH and PhD in Epidemiology degrees from the UCLA School of Public Health. After obtaining her PhD, she held a postdoctoral fellow and scientist position at the International Agency for Research on Cancer in Lyon, France. She is currently an assistant professor in the Division of Public Health and a Huntsman Cancer Institute investigator.
Dr. Hashibe’s research interests are on the global and molecular cancer epidemiology and the etiology of tobacco-related cancers. She has led projects within the International Head and Neck Cancer Epidemiology (INHANCE) Consortium on the lifestyle and genetic factors of head and neck cancer. She is currently the co-coordinator of the INHANCE consortium. Dr. Hashibe’s current epidemiologic studies include: a head and neck cancer case-control study in China, a lung cancer case-control study in Nepal, a testicular cancer study in Utah and a head and neck cancer risk prediction modeling project.
