PROJECT SUMMARY The proposed conference series, titled “The Science of Cancer Health Disparities in Racial/Ethnic Minorities and the Medically Underserved,” will be held annually in the fall (2019-2023). The 2019 conference will be held September 20-23, 2019 in San Francisco, California. The locations of the 2020-2023 conferences remain to be selected, but will be chosen based upon the future needs and growth of the conference series. This proposed conference series will be the 12th-16th in an AACR series focused specifically on the science of cancer health disparities. The first conference on The Science of Cancer Health Disparities in Racial/Ethnic Minorities and the Medically Underserved was held in 2007, then annually from 2009-2018. While most conferences on cancer health disparities focus on policy and public health issues, the goal of this conference is to incorporate perspectives from basic scientists and clinicians in conjunction with policy and public health. Transdisciplinary interactions between a variety of disciplines, including basic science, clinical research, population science, behavioral research, and cancer survivorship, are needed to move the field forward and make progress in reducing and eliminating disparities as they relate to cancer. Racial and ethnic disparities in cancer rates are well documented. While data suggest that differing levels of access to quality care contribute to cancer disparities, other factors also play a role, including tumor biology, genetics, hormonal status, lifestyle and behavior, screening policies, comorbidities, environmental exposure and risk, quality of and response to therapy, and post-therapeutic surveillance. The goal of this conference and the conference series is to bring together scientists and other professionals working in a variety of disciplines to discuss the latest findings in the field and to stimulate the development of new research in cancer health disparities.

项目总结 拟议的系列会议，题为《癌症健康差异的科学》 种族/少数族裔和医疗服务不足的人将在每年秋季举行 (2019-2023年)。2019年大会将于2019年9月20日至23日在旧金山举行， 加利福尼亚。2020-2023年会议的地点仍有待选择，但将 根据未来的需求和会议系列的发展而选择。这项建议 会议系列将是AACR系列会议中的第12至第16次，该系列会议专门关注 癌症健康差距。年首届癌症健康差异科学会议 种族/民族少数群体和医疗服务不足者于2007年举行，然后每年从 2009-2018年。虽然大多数关于癌症健康差异的会议都集中在政策和公众 健康问题，这次会议的目标是吸收基础科学家的观点 以及临床医生与政策和公共卫生相结合。跨学科互动 在包括基础科学、临床研究、人口科学、 行为研究和癌症存活率是推动这一领域向前发展并使 在减少和消除与癌症有关的差异方面取得进展。 癌症发病率的种族和民族差异是有据可查的。虽然数据表明 获得高质量护理的不同程度导致了癌症的差异，其他因素也起到了作用 作用，包括肿瘤生物学、遗传学、激素状况、生活方式和行为、筛查 政策、合并症、环境暴露和风险、治疗质量和反应， 以及治疗后的监测。这次会议和系列会议的目标是 将科学家和其他在不同学科工作的专业人士聚集在一起，讨论 该领域的最新发现，并刺激癌症健康新研究的发展 差距。
