    Background: In 1971, the National Cancer Act created a process to recognize the leadership, facilities, and research efforts at cancer centers throughout the United States. Toward this goal, each National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Cancer Center defines and describes a catchment area to which they tailor specific scientific and community engagement activities. Methods: The geographically…

Thus, assessing temporal shifts in early-onset distant stage adenocarcinoma can impact public health. Methods: 2000–2016 Surveillance…

    Background: Rural populations experience a disproportionate cancer burden relative to urban populations. One possibility is that rural populations are more likely to hold counterproductive cancer beliefs such as fatalism and information overload that undermine prevention and screening behaviors. Methods: Between 2016 and 2020, 12 U.S. cancer centers surveyed adults in their service areas using…
