As an Associate Scientist II on the Study Management Team, Jillian Nelson, MPH, manages Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3) medical record data. She works with Den E to clean, triage, and conduct quality control on this data for tissue acquisition efforts. Nelson also partners with the tissue team for data delivery and troubleshooting.
She helps manage data for the ongoing accelerometry project through R programming of accelerometry device data. This includes merging device and diary data for a complete picture of the participants’ experiences.
Nelson will continue to expand her American Cancer Society (快猫短视频) cohort data management role as new data collection efforts are added to the Population Science research portfolio.

I live in Brookhaven, Georgia, and in my free time I enjoy horseback riding, kayaking, and fishing.
