IGF::OT::IGF TASK ORDER 33: GEOSPATIAL APPROACHES TO CANCER CONTROL AND POPULATION SCIENCES - MEETING SUPPORT

癌症控制和人口科学部 (DCCPS) 将于 2016 年 9 月 12 日至 14 日在马里兰州贝塞斯达（Natcher 会议中心）举办题为“癌症控制和人口科学的地理空间方法”的会议。本次会议的目的是汇集使用地理空间工具、模型和方法来解决癌症预防和控制问题的研究人员社区，以便 1) 支持和建立该研究社区，2) 加速整合从空间研究到癌症控制和人口科学的最先进的工具和理论，3) 确定癌症控制数据、资源、培训和研究经费的未来方向。本次会议将讨论整个癌症控制过程中癌症的空间和背景问题，包括病因学、预防、检测、诊断、治疗和生存。会议将包括受邀演讲者、小组讨论以及基于与会者提交的摘要的演示和海报。

The Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences (DCCPS) is hosting a meeting titled “Geospatial Approaches to Cancer Control and Population Sciences” which will take place in Bethesda, MD (Natcher Conference Center) from September 12-14, 2016. The purpose of this conference is to bring together a community of researchers using geospatial tools, models and approaches to address cancer prevention and control in order to 1) support and build this research community, 2) accelerate the integration of state of the art tools and theories from spatial research into cancer control and population sciences, and 3) identify future directions for data, resource, training, and research funding in cancer control. This conference will address spatial and contextual aspects of cancer across the entire cancer control continuum including Etiology, Prevention, Detection, Diagnosis, Treatment and Survivorship. The conference will include invited speakers, panels, and presentations and posters based on abstracts submitted by attendees.
