A Cancer Population Sciences Research Program is an essential program at the UNM Cancer Center to understand the distinctive cancer patterns in the multiethnic, multicultural populations of New Mexico. These patterns show wide disparities among the diverse multi-ethnic populations in the state (42% Hispanic/Latino, 10% Native Americans, >50% rural, and neariy 25% of whom live in poverty). Underiying these disparities are barriers to cancer screening and access to treatment. Understanding the reasons for these cancer patterns is critical for ultimately designing and testing interventions to overcome these disparities.
