Dr. Jonathan Hofmann focuses his research on understanding the carcinogenic potential of pesticides and other agricultural exposures and PFAS. He also uses molecular epidemiologic approaches to investigate the etiology and natural history of multiple myeloma and its precursor monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS).| dceg.cancer.gov
DCEG investigators have developed a portfolio of research aimed at identifying cancer-types associated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). These studies are innovative for their direct assessment of exposure using banked serum specimens as well as their evaluation of risks at varying exposure levels, from occupational exposure to those found in the general population or among military personnel.| dceg.cancer.gov
