SUMMARY:Clinical Research Across the Color Line: A Dialogue on Racial Disparities
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a symposium on racial disparities in clinical research participation and the implications for public health. In almost every major area of disease research   including cancer\, psychiatric disease\, and metabolic disease   deep racial disparities persist in patient participation rates. Join us for a Broad-wide dialogue with scientists\, researchers\, cancer patients\, and patient advocates to examine the historical context of medical and scientific mistrust in African-American communities and the ongoing public health implications of these disparities. The symposium will conclude with a panel of patients and experts discussing strategies to overcome barriers and increase community participation in clinical research. Sponsored by the Metastatic Breast Cancer Project and Shades@Broad
