A really important concept here - the intersectionality in inequity - a close relation to the nursing perspective of personalised assessments… data must reflect the multiplicity of care & outcome analysis #CRUKDataConf24
As part of #WorldCancerDay, ICON and @LSHTM_CGCC will be hosting a hybrid film screening and Q&A on Thursday 8 February.
The film reveals how involving communities in
research is the first step in helping us #CloseTheCareGap. More details to follow!

Further evidence of the impact of covid-19 on cancer patients. Happy to have contributed to this research and see wider application of our survival models using population-based cancer registrations! Thanks @AggarwalOnc, @icon_lshtm!
Our results demonstrate the sobering human and economic impacts of cancer diagnostic delay during the pandemic. Resolving this doesn’t require a sticking plaster but a strategic health systems approach to managing and coordinating complex cancer care. Paper 👇

Measurements of deprivation are very important for research on health #inequalities, but do area-level scores and personal deprivation experienced by those living in the area match up? Find out in @DrFionaIngleby @aurelien_belot@BMJ_Open published today: https://t.co/kgTOBI9nqG
We estimate for each 4 week delay in cancer treatment around a 10% increase in the risk of death.
Meta-analysis of 7 cancers.
We must continue cancer treatments during the 2nd #COVID19 wave or face a significant rise in avoidable cancer deaths.
