The Fourth AACR Conference on the Science of Cancer Health Disparities in Racial/Ethnic Minorities and the Medically Underserved, which will be held from September 18 until September 21, brings together physicians, scientists, health professionals, and health care leaders working in a variety of disciplines to discuss the latest findings in their fields, to foster collaborative interdisciplinary interactions and partnerships, and to stimulate the development of new research in cancer health disparities.
This year’s program features eight Plenary Sessions which will highlight the latest high-impact research in cancer health disparities. To help prepare you for these sessions, we have compiled a list of articles published in the AACR journals that relate to the topics covered in the Plenary Sessions.
