Paula Cupertino, Ph.D., is a University of Rochester Medical Center Professor of Public Health Sciences and Oncology and Wilmot Cancer Institute’s first Associate Director of Community Outreach, Engagement and Disparities.

Cupertino leads efforts to strengthen and expand Wilmot’s research and connections across its 27-county catchment area in upstate New York. A social behavioral scientist, Cupertino has focused her research on health disparities in underserved and minority communities, primarily among Latinos and immigrants. Much of her work has been in tobacco control, improving smoking cessation and access to cessation treatments using a community-based approach.

She also serves as a member of the Medical Center Executive Committee for Diversity and Inclusion and the UR Community Engagement Committee. As part of both efforts, Cupertino seeks to bring additional resources, infrastructure and opportunities to build a community-based research program in collaboration with UR departments, divisions and centers.

Throughout her career, she has had more than 40 peer-reviewed publications, and she has been continuously funded for her research since 2003.
