Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Kelly L. Harris is a Staff Fellow at the National Center for Toxicological Research. Her research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis, particularly the effects of environmental agents on DNA and gene expression. Harris has investigated the impact of benzo(a)pyrene on human colon cancer cells, examining cytotoxicity, proliferation, and DNA damage.

Her work also includes the development and application of methods for measuring cancer driver mutations. This includes studies using the CarcSeq approach to assess mutations in rat mammary and mouse lung cancer models, correlating these findings with incidence rates and strain/sex-specific variations. Collaborations within the National Center for Toxicological Research include work with Barbara L. Parsons, Binsheng Gong, Jennifer Faske, and Meagan B. Myers, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications. Harris has an h-index of 11 and has published 45 papers, accumulating 952 citations.
