This researcher has made significant contributions to cancer biology by integrating genome-wide studies with clinical applications across African populations, focusing on cancer genomics and diagnostic techniques. Their work highlights advancements in identifying cancer genomic biomarkers in Ghanaian breast cancer patients and discovering structural changes in breast cancer predisposition genes in the African population. Additionally, they have elucidated the role of NF-κB signaling pathways in breast cancer treatment through a study at Cape Coast Teaching Hospital. Their research also emphasizes global cancer incidence trends using data from 2013–2015, providing insights into screening strategies for black women in Ghana and the US. This integrative approach underscores the importance of translational genomics in oncology and the need to address health disparities in cancer care.
