4th NCI Symposium on Cancer Health Disparities - Day 2
Cancer health disparities affect millions of people across the United States and globally. Disparities in cancer burden are evident by geography, race/ethnicity, genetic ancestry, immigrant status, culture, gender, sexual orientation (LGBTQ+), and socioeconomic class, among other factors. Cancer disparities are not only due to barriers in access to health care, but also due to cultural barriers, structural racism and environmental disadvantage, ancestry-related risk factors, persistent co-morbidities, and chronic stress exposure because of discrimination and social isolation.

Shutting the Digital Back Door: Creating Tech Justice with Health Data Liquidity and the Digital Humanities
This talk explores the concept of the digital back door in health care, “ technological processes and tools used in health care, such as racially biased algorithms, infrastructural limitations, and dirty data ” and its historical roots in structural and systemic racism. The methodological use of the digital humanities offers an opportunity to eliminate digital back doors by creating more humanistic and equitable health information technology (health IT) that address health disparities and inequities. Data liquidity, health information and data that is more computationally agile, usable, and interoperable between patien...
