About Dr. Lorraine R. Reitzel

Dr. Lorraine R. Reitzel is a Professor of Behavioral Science at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Her research focuses on the social determinants of cancer and cancer risk behaviors - and the specific biopsychosocial mechanisms that account for associated disparities among minoritized and marginalized groups - with an emphasis on generating highly translational results that inform policy and intervention. Her primary focus is tobacco use and cessation; however, her work spans dietary risk behaviors, physical inactivity, alcohol/drug use, and cancer screening behaviors and investigates a wide range of social and socioeconomic determinants of health inequities. Additionally, Dr. Reitzel is invested in the research training and professional development of undergraduate/graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and early career scientists in addictions, cancer prevention, and health equity with a particular emphasis on trainees from low-income households or from low-resourced communities, those who are first-generation college graduates or who plan to pursue a career providing care to persons from groups that experience tobacco- related health inequities.

Dr. Reitzel has been instrumental in securing >$40 million in interdisciplinary sponsored research as a Principal or Co-Investigator, with >$9 million as Principal Investigator. She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Health Behavior and the Society for Research on Nicotine & Tobacco and has authored >200 peer-reviewed empirical publications to date.
