Access, Equity, and Systemic Change in Cancer Care: Jayasree Iyer in CancerWorld Interview – Access to Medicine Foundation
Access to Medicine Foundation shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Yeva Margaryan, MD, MPH interviewed our CEO, Jayasree Iyer K. Iyer, for the August issue of CancerWorld magazine. The two spoke about Jayasree’s journey from growing up in Singapore to leading the Access to Medicine Foundation.
She underscores the urgent need to close the gap in Cancer Care, with 80% of the world still unable to access treatments, emphasising that charity is not a solution and that equity must be built into Health Systems.
The feature also spotlights the Foundation’s role in holding pharma companies accountable for ensuring their innovations reach the people who need them most.
Yeva Margaryan, Managing Editor at CancerWorld, shared a post by Access to Medicine Foundation, adding:
“Two of the things I value most about CancerWorld
First, we don’t just publish breakthroughs, we also raise critical questions about access and the gaps in global care.
Second, the opportunity to engage with remarkable people like Jayasree Iyer, whose unstoppable passion for equity is driving real change in cancer care. And when these two come together, they result in powerful articles built on sincere conversations that truly resonate.”
