Latrice Landry PhD, MSc

Dr. Latrice G. Landry, MS, PhD is a postdoctoral fellow in the Laboratory for Personalized Medicine at the Center for Biomedical Informatics at Harvard Medical School. Under the mentorship of Dr. Peter J. Tonellato, her research in molecular epidemiology and genomics uses bioinformatics, systems science, and integrative genomics to aid in the understanding of cancer genetics. Dr. Landry’s work in cancer genomics, identification of rare and common cancer variants, cancer networks, and ascertainment of risk prediction in various populations is the foundation for understanding the complex interactions between the human genome and environment as well as subsequent contributions of both the genome and environment to health disparities. Dr. Landry’s research is expected to provide the basis for translational work in cancer prevention and treatment in the field of personalized genomic medicine. Dr. Landry received her Bachelor of Arts from Tufts University in 2002 and graduated from the Friedman School of Nutritional Science and Policy at Tufts University with her Master of Science in food policy and applied nutrition in 2004. In 2013 she received her Doctor of Philosophy degree in nutritional epidemiology.
