The National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities has presented its Health Disparities Leadership Award to the Asian American Network for Cancer Awareness Research and Training (AANCART). The largest nationwide project ever undertaken to curb cancer in Asian Americans, AANCART is based at UC Davis Cancer Center and funded by the National Cancer Institute. Moon Chen Jr., a UC Davis professor of hematology and oncology who specializes in developing linguistically specific, culturally tailored and population-based health interventions, oversees AANCART.
