Forum Focus | Advancing Research, Innovation and Health Equity
Cancer remains a critical public health problem and how new cures are discovered and delivered will continue to change. Getting new and affordable cancer therapies from the research lab to the patient will require collaborative solutions from researchers, business leaders, providers, and policymakers.

Research and Innovation.

• Advancements in medical research have unleashed new and improved therapies that are revolutionizing cancer care.

• Researchers from New York and New Jersey institutions are playing a key role in these advancements, but what does the future hold for federal investment in medical research?  

• Is the discovery pipeline growing to meet the demand of cancer rates?  

• What have we accomplished and what’s next for cancer research and treatment?

Equity.

• The pandemic has exposed health disparities that exist in communities across the country. 

• The cancer death rate is 20% higher for individuals from the poorest U.S. counties compared to affluent counties. 

• The 5-year relative survival rate is lower among Blacks than Whites for every stage of diagnosis in the four most common cancer sites.

• What is health equity and what public policies need to be considered to close the gap for all cancer patients?
