ArtScience – On the Road to Cancer Health Equity

Originally aired: February 20, 2023

In honor of World Cancer Day, this episode dove deep into the intersection of cancer research, health equity, and community empowerment. We broke down new data from the American Cancer Society showing promising declines in mortality—but also the stark, persistent disparities impacting Black and underserved communities.

We also explored how researchers, creatives, and advocates—especially those early in their careers—can play a critical role in reshaping the narrative and driving progress. From bench science to barbershop conversations, this episode reminded us that advancing equity takes all of us.
