AACR International Conference:
The Science of Cancer Health Disparities
in Racial/Ethnic Minorities and the Medically Underserved

Co-Sponsored by the NCI Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities in conjunction with the Minorities in Cancer Research Council of the AACR.

This conference is a landmark event on the path of understanding and, ultimately, eliminating the disparities in cancer that represent a major public health problem in our country. By promoting the exchange of novel ideas and information between a wide range of professionals and laity, from academia, industry, government, and the community, the conference maximizes the many opportunities for bringing research on health disparities from bench to bedside or community, and back again.

The goal of this historic conference is to bring together scientists and other professionals working in a variety of disciplines to discuss the latest findings in the field and to stimulate the development of new research in cancer health disparities. Speakers address various topics including carcinogenesis, molecular etiology, biomarkers, epidemiology, prevention, cancer communications, translational research, treatment, health economics, and survivorship.
