Dr. Runco's research interests include:
As a pediatric oncologist, I am interested in nutrition and supportive care for children undergoing cancer treatment. Weight loss during cancer therapy is associated with decreased muscle mass, increased toxicity, and worsened morbidity and mortality. I am specifically interested in improved screening for malnutrition, standardized and appropriate nutritional intervention, and biologic correlates both during and in survivorship.
