Personal profile
Research Interests
Dr. Woodahl’s research focuses on precision medicine and pharmacogenomics to identify sources of interindividual variability in disease treatment and prevention. Translation of pharmacogenomics into clinical practice requires genetic research with diverse patient populations to accurately predict drug response and toxicity for all people regardless of geographic location, ethnicity, or age. We use community-based participatory research to address complex and important challenges to conducting precision medicine research and aid in the translation of precision medicine research into the clinic.
