Profile Information
- about me
- Dr. Ofelia A. Olivero obtained her PhD in cytogenetics in Argentina and subsequently joined the National Cancer Institute where she has worked since 1987. Dr. Olivero’s initial work focused on the relationship between cytogenetics and cancer, and she was the first person to map DNA adducts on chromosomes using antibodies against DNA adducts. Later she focused on transplacental carcinogenesis induced by the nucleoside analogs that are mainly used in AIDS therapy. Together with her colleagues, she showed for the first time that the nucleoside analog used in the earliest AIDS therapy was a transplacental carcinogen in mice. She is currently a Staff Scientist in the Laboratory of Cellular Carcinogenesis and Tumor Promotion at NCI where she is applying microarray techniques to investigate mechanisms of nucleoside analog-induced carcinogenesis. She has been instrumental in the creation and organization of the Staff Scientists/Staff Clinicians Organization in CCR, NCI, and continues to be active on its steering committee. She is also a member of the Executive Board of the Genetic Toxicology Association and co-chairs a committee of the Environmental Mutagen Society.
