About Equitable Cancer Care

Cancer affects all populations, but certain groups bear a disproportionate burden of cancer resulting in disparities. Ensuring diversity, equity, and inclusion are critical in reducing cancer disparities among under-served and under-represented populations.

This article collection welcomes submissions on the latest research related to cancer disparity domains including, but not limited to, age, race and ethnicity, education, income, sexual orientation and gender identity, social class, national origin, disability, and geographic location. 

Review articles, Brief Reports, Systematic Reviews & Meta-Analyses, Study Protocols, Correspondence, Opinion Articles, Policy Briefs, and Primary Research are welcomed. 

Keywords: health disparities; health access; underserved populations; intersectionality; equality; equity; diversity; inclusion; racial and ethnic minorities; LGBTQ populations; poverty; rural populations; urban populations; oncology
