2022 Minority and Minority-serving Institution Faculty Scholar in Cancer Research Awardees

The AACR is very pleased to administer this important program, which provides funds for the participation of full-time minority faculty members and faculty members of Minority-Serving Institutions (MSI) at the AACR Annual Meeting 2022. Recipients of this award are scientists who are working at the level of assistant professor or above who are engaged in meritorious basic, clinical, or translational cancer research.

Now in its 25th year, this award program has been supported by a generous grant provided by the National Cancer Institute’s Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities. The Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD) works to increase the number of underrepresented minorities participating as competitive NCI/ NIH-funded cancer researchers. The Board of Directors of the AACR expresses its appreciation to the CRCHD for its long-term and generous support of faculty members and congratulations to the Minority and Minority-Serving Institution Faculty awardees.

The names and affiliations of the 2022 Minority and Minority-Serving Institution Faculty Scholars are listed below, along with the numbers and titles of their presentations.
