From Disparities to Data: Changing the Future of Black Women’s Health | Episode 166

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Lauren McCullough, Senior Scientific Director of Epidemiology Research at the American Cancer Society, to discuss the groundbreaking Voices of Black Women study. We explore why Black women must be centered in cancer research, the deeper social and environmental factors that influence health outcomes, and how long term data can reshape the future of prevention, diagnosis, and care. This conversation balances science and sisterhood, offering both evidence based insight and heartfelt truth about what it means to truly study and support Black women’s health.

If you are a Black woman between the ages of 25 and 55 and have never been diagnosed with cancer, you may be eligible to participate in this historic research initiative. Your voice has the power to help shape the future of cancer care for generations to come. Learn more and see if you qualify at http://www.voices.cancer.org
