Immaculata De Vivo

Immaculata De Vivo is a molecular epidemiologist and professor at Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health. She is also the Editor-in-Chief of the scientific journal Cancer Causes & Control.^[1]

Background[edit]

Immaculata De Vivo was born in Sarno, Italy and migrated to United States in 1970^{[citation needed]} She earned her bachelor's degree at St. John's University in 1986, then proceeded for her MPH and PhD degrees at Columbia University New York in 1991 and 1993 respectively.^[2] De Vivo was a postdoctoral fellow at UC Berkeley from 1993-1995 and at Stanford University from 1995 to 1998.

Research[edit]

De Vivo's is known for her work on telomere length and disease risk, with special emphasis on risk of cancer development.^[3]^[4]^[5] Her work on the impact of lifestyle on disease development especially cancer is noteworthy.^[6]^[7]^[8]
