They educate patients and caregivers and push for policy changes to advance research. Though they accept funding from various sources, their programs are developed for those affected by colorectal cancer. Advocacy has led to greater public research funding and clinical trials for colorectal cancer compared to other cancers, but more work remains as mortality rates remain high.
The increase of single parent families: An examination of causespleasure16
This document summarizes grants committed by the Avon Foundation for breast cancer programs in 2003, totaling over $27 million. The majority of funds went to direct clinical care and services for underserved populations at public hospitals across the US. Significant funds also supported public education, outreach, patient navigation and advocacy programs, as well as breast cancer research. Smaller amounts were granted for education programs for women's empowerment and support services to help breast cancer patients.
AACR Press Release Early-Career Hill DayMario Pulido
The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) sent 15 early-career cancer scientists to Capitol Hill for their inaugural Early-career Hill Day. These scientists met with 36 congressional members and staff to discuss how early-career scientists have been disproportionately affected by stagnant funding from the National Institutes of Health and National Cancer Institute over the past decade, making it harder to obtain grants and remain in research careers. The AACR is working to support early-career investigators and help secure continued funding growth through initiatives like new grants for young researchers.

On October 7, 2019, the Harvard Global Health Institute will host a one-day symposium to explore what enabled this visionary program, and to showcase how it has transformed not just the worldwide HIV/AIDS response but global health delivery more broadly.
There are many lessons learned in PEPFAR’s story - from what it took to build a supply chain where there was none, to establishing the use of generic antiretroviral therapies (ARTs) and leveraging human capacity. This event convened the early architects of PEPFAR as well as experts and implementers currently leading the charge. We took a historically informed look at what it will take to stop global transmission, and shared tools useful for others hoping to move the needle on vexing problems in global health.

Challenges and Opportunities 07082022 Conference.pptxFredasirwa
The document summarizes a presentation by Prof. Fredrick Chite Asirwa on challenges and opportunities in cancer research reporting in sub-Saharan Africa. It finds that less than 1% of clinical cancer trials are conducted in Africa. Media in Kenya rarely reports on ongoing cancer studies, research findings, or centers conducting cancer research. Challenges include lack of health journalism training, short deadlines, and prioritizing sensational stories over research. Opportunities include partnerships to educate the public and advocate for improved cancer care through research. Recommendations include multidisciplinary collaboration to increase balanced, accurate research reporting across the cancer continuum.
This document discusses the development of an inexpensive universal carrier screening test that can detect over 450 genetic diseases. The founder's daughter was diagnosed with Batten disease, motivating the creation of Beyond Batten Disease Foundation. Their goal is to develop an easy, affordable blood test that can be administered to prospective parents to detect gene mutations and help prevent devastating genetic diseases from being passed on. If widely adopted, such a screening program could help eliminate many rare genetic disorders by identifying carriers before they have children. The document outlines the progress made so far in developing such a test in collaboration with the National Center for Genome Resources, with the aim of launching an affordable universal carrier screening test.
The document discusses two research organizations, the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). It summarizes several projects currently being undertaken by each organization, including a study by Memorial Hermann Health Systems using a mobile stroke unit that has shown positive outcomes for rapidly treating stroke patients. Another PCORI project aims to reduce opioid dependency by comparing different risk communication methods, but outcomes have not been reported yet. AHRQ is evaluating chronic disease self-management programs that have led to statistically significant improved self-efficacy. However, the author questions whether another AHRQ project enhancing data collection of patient race and ethnicity will truly illuminate health disparities or just

The Ultimate Guide in Setting Up Market Research System in Health-TechGokul Rangarajan
How to effectively start market research in the health tech industry by defining objectives, crafting problem statements, selecting methods, identifying data collection sources, and setting clear timelines. This guide covers all the preliminary steps needed to lay a strong foundation for your research.
"Market Research it too text-booky, I am in the market for a decade, I am living research book" this is what the founder I met on the event claimed, few of my colleagues rolled their eyes. Its true that one cannot over look the real life experience, but one cannot out beat structured gold mine of market research.
Many 0 to 1 startup founders often overlook market research, but this critical step can make or break a venture, especially in health tech.
But Why do they skip it?
Limited resources—time, money, and manpower—are common culprits.
"In fact, a survey by CB Insights found that 42% of startups fail due to no market need, which is like building a spaceship to Mars only to realise you forgot the fuel."
Sudharsan Srinivasan
Operational Partner Pitchworks VC Studio
Overconfidence in their product’s success leads founders to assume it will naturally find its market, especially in health tech where patient needs, entire system issues and regulatory requirements are as complex as trying to perform brain surgery with a butter knife. Additionally, the pressure to launch quickly and the belief in their own intuition further contribute to this oversight. Yet, thorough market research in health tech could be the key to transforming a startup's vision into a life-saving reality, instead of a medical mishap waiting to happen.
Example of Market Research working
Innovaccer, founded by Abhinav Shashank in 2014, focuses on improving healthcare delivery through data-driven insights and interoperability solutions. Before launching their platform, Innovaccer conducted extensive market research to understand the challenges faced by healthcare organizations and the potential for innovation in healthcare IT.
Identifying Pain Points: Innovaccer surveyed healthcare providers to understand their difficulties with data integration, care coordination, and patient engagement. They found widespread frustration with siloed systems and inefficient workflows.
Competitive Analysis: Analyzed competitors offering similar solutions in healthcare analytics and interoperability. Identified gaps in comprehensive data aggregation, real-time analytics, and actionable insights.
Regulatory Compliance: Ensured their platform complied with HIPAA and other healthcare data privacy regulations. This compliance was crucial to gaining trust from healthcare providers wary of data security issues.
Customer Validation: Conducted pilot programs with several healthcare organizations to validate the platform's effectiveness in improving care outcomes and operational efficiency. Gathered feedback to refine features and user interface.

It finds that less than 1% of clinical cancer trials are conducted in Africa. Media in Kenya rarely reports on ongoing cancer studies, research findings, or centers conducting cancer research. Challenges include lack of health journalism training, short deadlines, and prioritizing sensational stories over research. Opportunities include partnerships to educate the public and advocate for improved cancer care through research. Recommendations include multidisciplinary collaboration to increase balanced, accurate research reporting across the cancer continuum.
This document discusses the development of an inexpensive universal carrier screening test that can detect over 450 genetic diseases. The founder's daughter was diagnosed with Batten disease, motivating the creation of Beyond Batten Disease Foundation. Their goal is to develop an easy, affordable blood test that can be administered to prospective parents to detect gene mutations and help prevent devastating genetic diseases from being passed on. If widely adopted, such a screening program could help eliminate many rare genetic disorders by identifying carriers before they have children. The document outlines the progress made so far in developing such a test in collaboration with the National Center for Genome Resources, with the aim of launching an affordable universal carrier screening test.
The document discusses two research organizations, the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). It summarizes several projects currently being undertaken by each organization, including a study by Memorial Hermann Health Systems using a mobile stroke unit that has shown positive outcomes for rapidly treating stroke patients. Another PCORI project aims to reduce opioid dependency by comparing different risk communication methods, but outcomes have not been reported yet. AHRQ is evaluating chronic disease self-management programs that have led to statistically significant improved self-efficacy. However, the author questions whether another AHRQ project enhancing data collection of patient race and ethnicity will truly illuminate health disparities or just

The Ultimate Guide in Setting Up Market Research System in Health-TechGokul Rangarajan
How to effectively start market research in the health tech industry by defining objectives, crafting problem statements, selecting methods, identifying data collection sources, and setting clear timelines. This guide covers all the preliminary steps needed to lay a strong foundation for your research.
"Market Research it too text-booky, I am in the market for a decade, I am living research book" this is what the founder I met on the event claimed, few of my colleagues rolled their eyes. Its true that one cannot over look the real life experience, but one cannot out beat structured gold mine of market research.
Many 0 to 1 startup founders often overlook market research, but this critical step can make or break a venture, especially in health tech.
But Why do they skip it?
Limited resources—time, money, and manpower—are common culprits.
"In fact, a survey by CB Insights found that 42% of startups fail due to no market need, which is like building a spaceship to Mars only to realise you forgot the fuel."
Sudharsan Srinivasan

Overconfidence in their product’s success leads founders to assume it will naturally find its market, especially in health tech where patient needs, entire system issues and regulatory requirements are as complex as trying to perform brain surgery with a butter knife. Additionally, the pressure to launch quickly and the belief in their own intuition further contribute to this oversight. Yet, thorough market research in health tech could be the key to transforming a startup's vision into a life-saving reality, instead of a medical mishap waiting to happen.
Example of Market Research working
Innovaccer, founded by Abhinav Shashank in 2014, focuses on improving healthcare delivery through data-driven insights and interoperability solutions. Before launching their platform, Innovaccer conducted extensive market research to understand the challenges faced by healthcare organizations and the potential for innovation in healthcare IT.
Identifying Pain Points: Innovaccer surveyed healthcare providers to understand their difficulties with data integration, care coordination, and patient engagement. They found widespread frustration with siloed systems and inefficient workflows.
Competitive Analysis: Analyzed competitors offering similar solutions in healthcare analytics and interoperability. Identified gaps in comprehensive data aggregation, real-time analytics, and actionable insights.
Regulatory Compliance: Ensured their platform complied with HIPAA and other healthcare data privacy regulations. This compliance was crucial to gaining trust from healthcare providers wary of data security issues.
Customer Validation: Conducted pilot programs with several healthcare organizations to validate the platform's effectiveness in improving care outcomes and operational efficiency. Gathered feedback to refine features and user interface.

The Importance of Black Women Understanding the Chemicals in Their Personal C...bkling
Certain chemicals, such as phthalates and parabens, can disrupt the body's hormones and have significant effects on health. According to data, hormone-related health issues such as uterine fibroids, infertility, early puberty and more aggressive forms of breast and endometrial cancers disproportionately affect Black women. Our guest speaker, Jasmine A. McDonald, PhD, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Epidemiology at Columbia University in New York City, discusses the scientific reasons why Black women should pay attention to specific chemicals in their personal care products, like hair care, and ways to minimize their exposure.

THE SPECIAL SENCES- Unlocking the Wonders of the Special Senses: Sight, Sound...Nursing Mastery
Title: Unlocking the Wonders of the Special Senses: Sight, Sound, Smell, Taste, and Balance
Introduction:
Welcome to our captivating SlideShare presentation on the Special Senses, where we delve into the extraordinary capabilities that allow us to perceive and interact with the world around us. Join us on a sensory journey as we explore the intricate structures and functions of sight, sound, smell, taste, and balance.
The special senses are our primary means of experiencing and interpreting the environment, each sense providing unique and vital information that shapes our perceptions and responses. These senses are facilitated by highly specialized organs and complex neural pathways, enabling us to see a vibrant sunset, hear a symphony, savor a delicious meal, detect a fragrant flower, and maintain our equilibrium.
In this presentation, we will:
Visual System (Sight): Dive into the anatomy and physiology of the eye, exploring how light is converted into electrical signals and processed by the brain to create the images we see. Understand common vision disorders and the mechanisms behind corrective measures like glasses and contact lenses.
Auditory System (Hearing): Examine the structures of the ear and the process of sound wave transduction, from the outer ear to the cochlea and auditory nerve. Learn about hearing loss, auditory processing, and the advances in hearing aid technology.
Olfactory System (Smell): Discover the olfactory receptors and pathways that enable the detection of thousands of different odors. Explore the connection between smell and memory and the impact of olfactory disorders on quality of life.
Gustatory System (Taste): Uncover the taste buds and the five basic tastes – sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami. Delve into the interplay between taste and smell and the factors influencing our food preferences and eating habits.
Vestibular System (Balance): Investigate the inner ear structures responsible for balance and spatial orientation. Understand how the vestibular system helps maintain posture and coordination, and explore common vestibular disorders and their effects.
Through engaging visuals, interactive diagrams, and insightful explanations, we aim to illuminate the complexities of the special senses and their profound impact on our daily lives. Whether you're a student, educator, or simply curious about how we perceive the world, this presentation will provide valuable insights into the remarkable capabilities of the human sensory system.
Join us as we unlock the wonders of the special senses and gain a deeper appreciation for the intricate mechanisms that allow us to experience the richness of our environment.
