I received a competitive Research Supplement to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research from the National Cancer Institute (NCI). This supplement stems from the Detroit Community Network Program (CNP) [U01 CA114583-02S2A1; PI: T. L. Albrecht]. The Detroit CNP is a five-year effort that seeks to reduce cancer health disparities in breast, prostate, colorectal and lung cancers which adversely affect older African Americans in metropolitan Detroit.
