Baylor College of Medicine is the only know source to the National Cancer Institute that can provide the visibility needed to close the gap on health disparities, including cancer, in racial and ethnic minority and medically underserved populations in the United States. The Symposium is one of the key national forums to showcase successful program strategies to reach minority and medically underserved people with cancer information.
