Jason Wong, S.M., Sc.D.

Tenure-Track Investigator

Dr. Jason Wong earned his dual-doctorate in epidemiology and environmental health from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts. He later became a postdoctoral fellow at the Stanford University School of Medicine, where he examined the chronic health effects of secondhand smoke as well as sex hormones in a multi-ethnic study of U.S. women. Prior to joining ECHB, Dr. Wong was a research fellow at the Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, where he investigated the influence of occupational and environmental exposure to air pollutants on various biomarkers of genomic instability, as well as identifying risk factors for lung cancer among special populations in the U.S., Europe, and East Asia.
