21 Sep Discovery Radio – Episode #53 – Men Moving Forward: Addressing Disparities in African American Male Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among men in the U.S., but research shows that a significant disparity exists in the U.S. and, specifically, in Milwaukee. On today’s show, learn about a research study hoping to provide better outcomes for African American men treated for prostate cancer in our community. We’ll also discover a clinical trial that’s enrolling patients being treated for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. And later, we’ll focus our CTS-EYE on the Medical College of Wisconsin’s 125thAnniversary being marked in 2018.That’s all coming up inside this edition of CTSI Discovery Radio!
