We aspire to eliminate cancer health differences in communities living in California and Florida, and contribute to paving the way to eliminate cancer health differences in these populations across the US. Our long-term goals are:
There are stark cancer health differences in the US. For example, for all cancers combined, the death rate is 25 percent higher for African-Americans than for whites. Compared to Whites, Latinos have higher rates for stomach, cervical, and liver cancer, as well as worse survival for several cancers. White people had the highest rate of new cancers at 437 per 100,000 people in the US. Leaders of this triad collectively have expertise in translational genomics; molecular and cancer epidemiology; cancer biology; drug discovery and development; and management of cancer pain and end-of-life issues. Together, we foster and fund innovative translational research across the University of Southern California, the University of Florida, and Florida A&M University.
A key goal of the center is to broaden the research workforce focused on cancer. The center provides research-training opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and early-stage investigators (ESI) in Florida and California and will promote their individual research and career development.
We work together with our communities in California and Florida to disseminate information, learn about community needs, and engage community members in research, training, and outreach. We develop materials tailored for our unique communities in Florida and Southern California, provide bilingual community training sessions across the two coasts, train community advocates, and develop a new generation of Community Scientists.
