New Horizons in Eliminating Health Disparities
Translating Transdisciplinary Science into Sustainable Community Solutions
The focus of Dr. Gehlert's campus-and-community colloquium is effective strategies in translating transdisciplinary science into practical solutions. The new horizons she refers to in her talk include identifying and overcoming obstacles to ending health disparities. She will discuss the complex and multilevel determinants of health disparities in the United States, with examples from NCI-funded trans-disciplinary research initiatives, such as the Centers for Population Health and Health Disparities (CPHHD) and Trans-disciplinary Research on Energetics and Cancer (TREC).
