Dr. Moreno is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Medical Social Sciences at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. She received a BA in Psychology & Spanish-Hispanic Studies from the University of Texas at Austin and an MA/PhD in Clinical Health Psychology from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). She also completed an APA-accredited clinical internship at the Duke University School of Medicine and a fellowship in cancer control and survivorship at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine.
Dr. Moreno’s research broadly focuses on quality of life in cancer survivors. Her overarching goal is to develop an interdisciplinary program of research that improves our understanding of the significant challenges faced by individuals coping with cancer and informs our ability to support individuals across the cancer continuum through patient-centered healthcare delivery and tailored, empirically-supported interventions. She is particularly interested in addressing health disparities among Hispanics/Latinos and other underrepresented, underserved cancer survivors.
