You’re invited to a webinar to explore best practices for projects to reduce cancer health disparities.
The webinar, set for 11 a.m. CST on Tuesday, June 10, 2014, is conducted by Redes En Acción, a national Latino cancer research network funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and led by the Institute for Health Promotion Research (IHPR) at the UT Health Science Center at San Antonio, the team behind SaludToday.
The webinar will feature Dr. Eliseo Perez-Stable, leader of Redes‘ northwest region and chief of chief of the Division of General Internal Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) Medical Center.
Perez-Stable will discuss the latest evidence-based methods for developing, implementing, and evaluating interventions on health disparities.
Perez-Stable’s research involves improving the health of poor and minority patients by reducing health risks. He collaborates with investigators from several institutions to help develop the tobacco control research agenda for minority populations in the US, and leads organizational units focused on African American, Asian American, and Latino populations with a special emphasis on cancer, cardiovascular disease, aging, and reproductive health.
