Patricia G. Wolf studies how diet, gut bacteria, and bile acids interact to influence health, with a particular focus on colorectal cancer risk and disparities in cancer outcomes across racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic groups. Her work examines topics such as diet quality, chronic stress, and the microbiome as factors that may explain unequal cancer risk, and includes both human clinical studies and animal research. She also contributes to broader discussions on microbiome research standards and practices.
