About the Speaker: Amanda Kong, PhD, MPH is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine and at the TSET Health Promotion Research Center at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. Dr. Kong is a public health and policy researcher, and she employs equity-centered analyses to measure and understand how cancer-related health behaviors and outcomes are related to the social and built environments in which people live, work, and interact.

About the Program: The P20 Cancer Research Education Program (C-REP) is funded through the National Cancer Institute Partnership to Advance Health Equity (PACHE) Program (P20CA253258) between the Stephenson Cancer Center at OU Health, Cherokee Nation, and Oklahoma State University. The goal of C-REP is to train researchers and students to meaningfully engage in cancer health equity research. This Collaborative grant has the goal of expanding tribal capacity to address cancer disparities through a coordinated program of pilot research directly involving early-stage investigators and students, and through specific cancer research curriculum development and outreach activities.
