Keith Humphreys - Epidemiology

Author Information

Keith Humphreys is currently affiliated with the Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm, Sweden. His research spans various aspects of medical epidemiology, with a particular focus on breast cancer, drug overdoses, and the impacts of sociodemographic factors on health outcomes.

Research Contributions

Keith Humphreys has made significant contributions to understanding breast cancer through a series of impactful studies. His research has explored associations between breast cancer risk and various genetic, molecular, and sociodemographic factors. Notably, he has investigated the effects of mammography screening, tumor growth models, and lymph node metastases. Additionally, his work on drug overdoses during the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the geographic and sociodemographic disparities in health outcomes.
