Shine Chang, Ph.D.

My role as in educator is to empower others to achieve success by helping them realize their fullest potential, by removing barriers from their path to achievement, and by giving them the tools for lifelong accomplishment. I focus my energy on three synergistic sets of professional goals: to conduct innovative research at the intersection of obesity and cancer prevention, to develop, evaluate, implement, and promote programs and policies to improve public health, and to improve the training, productivity, and work life of those in academia.
