Ruth MacDonald, RD, PhD
Iowa State University Research Program
Dr. MacDonald relocated from the University of Missouri to Iowa State
University in August 2004. The overall focus of our research team is to
identify factors in foods that reduce the incidence or progression of
cancer. We work with animal and cell culture models that are relevant
to human cancers of the breast, prostate and colon. Presently, our work
is funded by grants from the NIH-NIEHS, USDA-IFAFS and the American Institute
for Cancer Research (AICR).
