Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Shelbie Stahr's research investigates associations between environmental exposures and health outcomes, with a focus on cancer and obesity. Stahr has examined the relationship between pesticide exposure and colorectal cancer risk, and the impact of low-level environmental heavy metals on obesity among postmenopausal women in Arkansas. Further research includes cytogenetic and epigenetic aberrations in peripheral lymphocytes of the Marshallese population in Northwest Arkansas, and the link between cigarette smoking and prostate cancer aggressiveness in African and European American men. Stahr also studies the increased utilization of low-dose CT for lung cancer screening at an Arkansas community oncology clinic and explores carcinogenic air pollutants and breast cancer risk within the Arkansas Rural Community Health Study. The researcher's work also encompasses the association of DNA methyltransferase polymorphisms with breast cancer and modified tumor uptake and biodistribution of nanoparticles.
