摘要:
癌症健康差异具有复杂性,是一系列需要考虑的因素,必须在所有研究人员中包括我们的规划、实施和执行中予以考虑,特别是在单细胞和空间技术方面,这些技术在低收入和中等收入国家的普及上面临更大的负担。本评论旨在探讨这些技术在创建多样化、代表性的癌症图谱方面面临的障碍,并呼吁制定一项面向全球各人群包容性的战略计划。©2023美国癌症研究协会。
Cancer health disparities are complex and a mixture of factors that need to be accounted for in both our planning, implementation, and execution across all researchers, especially in single-cell and spatial technologies, which have a higher burden for adoption in low- and middle-income countries. This commentary tackles the hurdles these technologies face in creating a diverse, representative atlas of cancer and is a call to arms for a strategic plan toward inclusivity across all global populations.©2023 American Association for Cancer Research.
