Biography

Randall E. Harris, MD, PhD earned his PhD in genetics and statistics at North Carolina State University and his MD from the University Of Nebraska College of Medicine.  After completing medical residency in Clinical Pathology and Preventive Medicine at Duke University Medical Center, Dr. Harris was appointed Chief of Epidemiology at the American Health Foundation in New York City.  During 1990-1995, he chaired the Department of Preventive Medicine and in 1995, Dr. Harris became the founding Director of The Ohio State University School of Public Health.  His research provided early evidence that COX-2 blocking agents have significant potential for the prevention and therapy of cancer.  In 2009, Dr. Harris was elected a Fellow in the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).  His textbook, Epidemiology of Chronic Disease, Global Perspectives (Jones & Bartlett Learning) is widely used by students in the fields of medicine and public health.
