Second time I've had the honor of hearing @ysabelduron speak, and I'm always so inspired by her work and call to action in advocating for Latino health & cancer care. Thank you for joining us this morning!
Invigorating conversation this morning with @ACSArizona & @UAZCancer Southern Arizona Hispanic/Latino Community Forum, discussing policy proposals and action addressing latino cancer disparities #cancerfreeAZ
“Stop playing that it’s all about biology and DNA without considering environment and zip code/neighborhood of association, ZNA. High stress equals poorer outcomes and more cancer.”
-@DrRobWinn speaking on structural impacts on disparities within communities at @AACR23.
@tomi_akinyemiju delivering a powerful message on centering equity in cancer care. Less than 7% of doctors, medical school faculty and research program leaders are Black. The solution IS NOT solely in the DEI officer you just hired #AACR2023#healthequity#CancerResearch

On one hand she was 99 years 348 days old when she died. On the other hand she lived through 24 leap years, i.e. 24 extra days.
All I'm saying is mathematically, it arguably checks out that she lived 100 years and 7 days.
