Overview

Sue A. Ingles is affiliated with the University of Southern California in the United States. Their research focuses primarily on biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology, with significant contributions to the fields of medicine, particularly genetics, pulmonary and respiratory medicine, oncology, cancer research, and molecular biology.

Their work extensively covers topics such as genetic associations and epidemiology, prostate cancer treatment and research, BRCA gene mutations in cancer, global cancer incidence and screening, cancer risks and factors, prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment, and genetic and clinical aspects of sex determination and chromosomal abnormalities.

Recent notable publications include:

  • An integrative multi-omics analysis to identify candidate DNA methylation biomarkers related to prostate cancer risk (2020, Nature Communications)
  • Genomic analysis of male puberty timing highlights shared genetic basis with hair colour and lifespan (2020, Nature Communications)
  • Polygenic hazard score is associated with prostate cancer in multi-ethnic populations (2021, Nature Communications)
  • Evaluating Polygenic Risk Scores for Breast Cancer in Women of African Ancestry (2021, JNCI Journal of the National Cancer Institute)
  • A Germline Variant at 8q24 Contributes to Familial Clustering of Prostate Cancer in Men of African Ancestry (2020, European Urology)

The researcher collaborates frequently with peers including Esther M. John, Stephen J. Chanock, Jennifer J. Hu, William J. Blot, and Christopher A. Haiman.

Sue A. Ingles has published regularly in several venues, notably UNC Libraries, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Cancer Research, Nature Communications, and European Urology.
