Join us in welcoming Bunt to the NAACCR community.
Please join us in welcoming Emily Bunt to the NAACCR community. She is the new Registry Manager for the Ohio Cancer Incidence Surveillance System (OCISS) at the Ohio Department of Health. Emily previously worked as a researcher and evaluator for Ohio’s Comprehensive Cancer Control Program and Breast and Cervical Cancer Project. She has used OCISS data to plan, implement and evaluate these programs, recently providing leadership for the revision of Ohio’s Cancer Plan.
A Focus on High-Quality Data
She has worked with a team to write reports on Ohio’s cancer incidence, including Cancer Stats & Facts for Ohio, a series of fact sheets to coincide with cancer awareness months. As Registry Manager, Emily hopes to maintain the collection of high-quality data and promote its use to reduce the burden of cancer in Ohio. Emily enjoys hiking, reading, and attending her son’s and daughter’s music concerts and theater productions. Emily is excited to join the team at OCISS.
Work with a colleague new to the community? We’d love to get to know their work.
