The discovery of the link between HPV and cervical cancer came in the 1980s and the research continues today, with researchers like our featured guest, Dr. Heather Brandt. Tune in to hear about how Dr. Brandt’s research has helped transform the landscape of addressing disparities in cancer prevention and how working with allies and partners has effectively increased HPV vaccination. Dr. Heather Brandt is the director of the HPV Cancer Prevention Program at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and co-associate director for outreach at the St. Jude Comprehensive Cancer Center. She also serves as a full member of the Department of Epidemiology and Cancer Control. She is a faculty affiliate at the University of Memphis School of Public Health and the University of South Carolina Arnold School of Public Health.
