From 1995 to 2003 he worked at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, on genetic  epidemiology methods and launched multiple studies of prostate cancer genetics. In 2003 he moved to the University of California, San Francisco, where he is currently Professor of Epidemiology & Biostatistics, Associate Director of the Institute for Human Genetics, Head of the Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Co-Leader of the Cancer Genetics Program. Dr. Witte’s work encompasses a synthesis of  methodological and applied genetic epidemiology, with  the overall aim of deciphering the mechanisms underlying  complex disease. His methodological work is primarily  on the design and statistical analysis of next-generation  sequencing projects and genome-wide association studies.  His applied work is mostly focused on prostate cancer,  pharmacogenomics, and birth defects.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJohn Witte Poster ( https://stage.utoronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/ISSS-Poster-Witte-John.pdf ) Download\n\n\n\nPhotography Disclosure:\n\n\n\nPhotographs and/or video may be taken of participants at STAGE events.
