Caryn Lerman: We are excited to announce the renewal of the U54 grant that supports the Florida-California Cancer Research, Education and Engagement Health Equity Center
Caryn Lerman, Director of USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, made the following post on LinkedIn:
“Under the leadership of Drs. Chanita Hughes-Halbert and Mariana Stern at USC, we are excited to announce the renewal of the U54 grant that supports the Florida-California Cancer Research, Education and Engagement Health Equity Center (CaRE2 Health Equity Center). This center addresses cancer disparities with a focus on lung and pancreatic cancer among African Americans and Latinos, though not limited to those cancers. The program trains underrepresented minority faculty (and graduate and post-doctoral trainees) to conduct research on cancer health disparities and community outreach and engagement. Numerous USC Norris members participate in teaching. In 2023, this program supported the training of seven post-baccalaureate students, 15 PhD students, 15 post-doctoral fellows, and 15 early-stage investigators. We’re excited to carry this momentum forward into the next funding phase.”
