We outline an integrative approach to extend the boundaries of molecular cancer epidemiology by integrating modern and rapidly evolving 'omics' technologies into state-of-the-art molecular epidemiology. In this way, one can comprehensively explore the mechanistic underpinnings of epidemiologic observations in cancer risk and outcome. We highlight the exciting opportunities to collaborate across large observational studies and to forge new interdisciplinary collaborative ventures. © 2012 American Association for Cancer Research.
