About Dr. Shinn
Eileen H. Shinn, PhD, is an assistant professor in the Department of Behavioral Science. Her research interests include behavioral interventions, especially focusing on adherence, biobehavioral outcomes in cancer, and dissemination of interventions via mobile technologies. She is also working with genomic researchers in breast cancer to investigate the interaction of adherence to adjuvant endocrine therapy and tumoral sensitivity to endocrine treatment on outcomes.
She currently leads a translational project utilizing an interactive website to disseminate an efficacious intervention promoting adherence to preventive swallowing exercises in head and neck cancer patients during radiation, funded by the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT). She has been PI of several grants, testing the efficacy and feasibility of psychosocial interventions in head and neck cancer and ovarian cancer patients (5R01DE019141; ACS RSGPB-09-156-01-CPPB; R21DE019954; R03CA108358; K07CA093512). She is also multi-PI on an study testing the efficacy of a remote dehydration monitoring system (CYCORE) in the reduction of hospitalization rates for head and neck cancer patients during radiation (Peterson; R01CA177996). Dr. Shinn has also conducted multisite research characterizing biobehavioral factors in long-term versus short-term ovarian cancer survivors and in adherence to daily oral treatment in ER+ breast cancer.
Dr. Shinn’s long-term goal is to link psychosocial research with advanced molecular assay techniques to impact health outcomes such as cardiovascular toxicities, late term toxicities and stress-mediated tumor progression.
Dr. Shinn has served as scientific reviewer for grant review panels for the Department of Defense Breast Cancer Research Program and as an ad-hoc member for NIH study sections. In 2016, Dr. Shinn received the New Investigator Award from the American Speech and Language Hearing Association. In 2012-13, she was a participant in the NIH Common Fund initiative panel, “Science of Behavior Change.” She holds a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Ohio University.
