Research Interests
Dr. Swetter has directed the Pigmented Lesion and Cutaneous Melanoma Clinic at Stanford and the VA since 1996 and is the Co-Director of the Stanford Multidisciplinary Melanoma Clinic. She serves as the national dermatology liaison to the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Melanoma Committee and Co-Chairs the Melanoma Prevention Working Group, a national forum for research collaboration among academic oncologists, dermatologists, epidemiologists, and surgeons dedicated to cancer control and prevention, and currently comprised of 26 Intergroup (ECOG, SWOG) melanoma centers in the US. Dr. Swetter's research interests include secondary prevention of melanoma, including early detection in individuals with atypical mole syndrome with digital dermoscopy and other surveillance techniques, enhanced skin cancer screening targeting high-risk groups, and research focused on increasing professional and public education to improve melanoma awareness. She is also engaged in clinical studies of the epidemiology, prognostic factors, and therapy of melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers.
