Learn about Clinical Research, Defining Diversity, and Advocacy & Outreach from Columbia University Herbert Irving Cancer Center.
This event raises awareness of clinical trials and the importance of health equity, inclusion and enrolling from diverse populations. We strongly believe that everyone should have the opportunity to participate in clinical trials especially in communities that are often underrepresented. Our goal is to help inform and educate people about the importance of clinical trials while understanding how true diversity and inclusiveness will help improve the lives of people and communities throughout the world.
The event will include presentations such as:
- "Clinical Trials 101"
- National Cancer Institute’s Minority and Underserved Community Oncology Research Program (MU-NCORP)
- Diversity & IncluSion in Research Underpinning Prevention and Therapy Trials (DISRUPT)
- Patient Advocates and more.
