The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Advisory Board for the Society of Surgical Oncology is honored to work with the American College of Surgeons to convene a vital conversation regarding disparities in the management and outcomes of cancer patients. Even more importantly, we will review strategies to mitigate disparate outcomes through research, policy and clinical service. A team of renowned researchers will lead a robust discussion regarding the roles of the surgical oncology workforce demographics, breast cancer screening, safety net hospitals, colorectal cancer surgery, and clinical trials in achieving cancer health equity.
