About this Class

Dr. Burcu F. Darst is an assistant professor in the Public Health Sciences Division at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. Her research is focused on identifying and understanding genetic and multi-omic risk factors of prostate cancer in diverse populations. In this webinar, Dr. Darst will be presenting on her effort to improve the utility of polygenic risk scores and rare genetic variants for the prediction of prostate cancer across patient populations.
