Future of Cancer Health Economics Research Virtual Conference December 2020
As part of HEROiC, the Interagency Consortium to Promote Health Economics Research on Cancer, and in collaboration with scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American Cancer Society, the Division of Cancer Control and Population Science (DCCPS) of the National Cancer Institute hosted a virtual conference, the Future of Cancer Health Economics Research Conference on December 2 - 3, 2020. This conference included presentations on challenges to conducting cancer health economics research and participatory discussions on activities to help support and enhance development of this field. Over 400 individuals registered for this virtual conference, which was free and open to the public.
The December 2020 virtual conference was one step in the development of the field of Cancer Health Economics Research; to help further enhance this field and provide additional opportunities for stakeholder engagement, materials from the conference are available for download. These include the conference agenda and program book; slides from conference presentations; and recordings of conference presentations and focused sessions. Feel free to download and share these resources. Please address any comments or questions to NCIcancerecon@mail.nih.gov.
Follow-Up JNCI Supplement from Virtual Conference
As a follow-up to this virtual conference, a Supplement to the Journal of the National Cancer Institute was published in July 2022, with papers based on presentations, panels, and breakout group discussions. The Supplement includes 16 manuscripts by NCI and extramural authors, covering a diverse range of cancer health economics research topics, and concludes with a conference summary and discussion of next steps for this field.
