Roundtable on Black in cancer research and oncology

Thank you so much. It's great to talk about cancer research in a holistic sense. Cancer is never seen in isolation, so it's important to have discussions about climate change and identity alongside that. I hope we can get some questions related to those topics.

In the meantime, I know some participants have been experiencing connection issues. This meeting will be recorded, so if anyone is having trouble with the connection, they can watch the recording later. We are currently in contact with the platform's support team to see if there is anything we can do to address the issues.

Now, I would like to introduce you to a blog. She is a radiation oncologist at Well Cornell Medicine, specializing in gynecological and breast malignancies. She focuses on improving the patient experience for those with these conditions. You might also know her as one of the onc dos who host a wonderful podcast. Their podcast highlights the stories of Black cancer oncologists and survivors, amplifying their voices.

Thank you for the wonderful introduction. Unfortunately, my better half is at a conference, so I am the only one here today. However, I am still very excited to speak to all of you about a topic that is important to me and I hope will become important to all of you.
