About

Charles S. Rabkin is a leading epidemiologist whose research focuses on the infectious origins of human cancers, particularly those linked to viruses and bacteria. His major contributions include elucidating the role of Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) in AIDS-related malignancies and investigating the interplay between Helicobacter pylori infection and gastric cancer risk. With over 48 citations for his recent synthesis of gastric cancer research in his 2020 Stanford University summit summary, Rabkin’s work has shaped global understanding of how chronic infections drive carcinogenesis. He has also made seminal contributions to the epidemiology of Epstein-Barr virus and human papillomavirus in lymphomas and anogenital cancers. As a senior investigator at the National Cancer Institute, Rabkin’s studies have informed prevention strategies and vaccine development, earning him recognition as a pioneer in cancer infection biology. His research continues to bridge molecular virology and population health, offering critical insights for reducing cancer burden worldwide.
