Mariame D. Diabate, PhD
Postdoctoral Scholar, Epidemiology
BioMariame Diabate, PhD (she/her) is a postdoctoral scholar in the HIPE Lab (Healthcare Innovation, Policy and Equity), mentored by Dr. Alyce S. Adams in the Stanford Cancer Institute and the Departments of Health Policy/Epidemiology and Population Health, and Pediatrics (by courtesy) and Dr. Tainayah Thomas in the Department of Epidemiology and Population Health. A two-time Buckeye, she earned her PhD in Biomedical Sciences and BS in Biology with a minor in Global Public Health from The Ohio State University. Dr. Diabate uses bioinformatics to study breast and ovarian cancer variants, intending to reduce cancer treatment disparities for minority women.
Through her postdoctoral training, she aims to address the genetic, social, and policy drivers of persistent health disparities. Dr. Diabate is currently focused on integrating community perspectives into observational research to improve population health outcomes and influence health policy. Additionally, she applies AI technology to support better treatment decisions, working alongside interdisciplinary teams to close the gap between cancer research and marginalized communities, while advocating for equitable healthcare.
Previously, she served as the youngest state-level commissioner on Ohio’s New African Immigrant Commission and interned with UNAIDS in Geneva, Switzerland. Currently, Dr. Diabate is one of the co-presidents for Stanford’s Black Postdoctoral Association. Her passion for improving minority women's health continues to drive her research and advocacy.
