Center To Eliminate Cancer Disparities
Researcher and Clinician Education
We want all researchers and clinicians to be aware of the
disparities that exist in cancer diagnoses among diverse ethnic groups so that they can incorporate
these important factors into their research efforts and clinical practices. We provide lectures,
seminars, printed pamphlets and hands on assistance in the development of research objectives.
