Peter A. Kanetsky, PhD, MPH, chair and program leader of cancer epidemiology at Moffitt Cancer Center, has been elected the new president for the American Society of Preventive Oncology.

Kanetsky will serve as president-elect before assuming the presidency in March 2017.

ASPO is a multidisciplinary society that, through a variety of professional education activities, is committed to accelerating progress toward cancer prevention and control. Kanetsky previously served on the society’s executive committee.

Kanetsky has been a member of the Moffitt Cancer Center faculty since January 2014. His research focuses on inherited genetics and the manner in which genes and the environment interact to influence the development of melanoma and testicular germ cell tumors. He also investigates how inherited genetics relate to and inform disease progression.
