Dr. Wiseman\u2019s research interests are focused on behaviors relevant to cancer prevention and control, including smoking cessation, alcohol use, diet, physical activity, and cancer screening. She has a particular interest in leveraging technology to develop scalable interventions and the application of research methods to create increasingly effective behavior change interventions. An additional area of interest is cancer survivorship research focused on the health behaviors of cancer survivors.<\/p>\n
