The disparities in #cancercare largely reflect disparities in social determinants of health, researchers wrote in the @americancancersoc.bsky.social's biennial report on the status of #cancerdisparities in the US.

#AACRdisp25 offered a session on professional advancement for #healthdisparities #cancerdisparities researchers, organized by @theaacr.bsky.social Minorities in Cancer Research Council. There were hard questions by researchers at all stages that reflected the difficult moment in #scientificresearch.
A slide titled, "Health Disparity Key Milestones." Below the title is the outline of a powerful timeline: 1985, Report of the Secretary's Task Force on Black & Minority Health was published; 1986, Office of Minority Health was established; 1989, American Cancer Society released a Report to the Nation on Cancer and the Poor; 2000, NIH established the National Center on Minority Health & Health Disparities; 2001, NCI established the Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities; 2003, "Unequal Treatment: Confronting Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Healthcare" was published; 2007, the inaugural year of AACR's The Science of Cancer Health Disparities international research conference
A slide titled, "The Playbook: Progress No Matter the Situation." Below the title are photos of African American woman Gladys West, captioned "Mathematician who gave us GPS."
A slide titled, "The Playbook: Progress No Matter the Situation." Below the title are photos of African American man Percy Lavon Julian, captioned "Made pain relief affordable."
He reminded us that #healthdisparities #cancerdisparities #scientificresearch has persevered through even the most turbulent times, that significant gains have been made despite sometimes overwhelming resistance, that there are many who came before us who wrote the playbook for us to follow.
He reminded us to publicly promote the fact that our hard work has already demonstrated gains: overall cancer incidence & survival are on the decline regardless of racial and ethnic population groups, & one of our big challenges now includes rural vs urban #cancerdisparities #healthdisparities.
#AACRdisp25 opened with Dr. Robert Winn's keynote, "Know your assignment" - a passionate call to action and sincere reminder to continue to do the strong, real, hard work to advance #scientificresearch in #cancerdisparities #healthdisparities.
