Research Interest & Projects
Dr. Soliman's research is focused on international cancer epidemiology. He has developed multidisciplinary molecular and genetic epidemiologic investigations into pancreatic, breast, and colorectal cancers in different ethnic and racial groups through national and international comparative studies. Furthermore, he is exploring the effect of migration to the United States on cancer risk modification. These studies are being pursued through interaction and collaboration with clinicians and scientists in the U. S. as well as international institutions in Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia, Morocco, Tanzania, Turkey, India and other countries in the Middle East and Africa.
