The mission of the Stanford Center for Clinical Research (SCCR) includes offering educational resources, training, and support for investigators and research staff.  We have invited the Assistant Professor of Medicine in Oncology, Dr. Manali I. Patel, MD, to provide you with the principles of oncology and treatments. The speaker will review etiologies and determinants for disparities. She will also review research areas including delivery science and its application to care delivery for patients with oncologic diseases.

At the conclusion of this class, you will be able to:

  • Apply principles of Cancer Epidemiology
  • Examine Screening Policies and Implications for Cancer
  • Explain principles of ZNA as etiologies for disparities in cancer development and outcomes
  • Analyze barriers that lead to disparities across the cancer continuum
  • Apply strategies to overcome barriers in current cancer care delivery

Attendance is open to all research staff.

About the Instructors:

Dr. Manali I. Patel, MD, is a medical thoracic oncologist and health services researcher at the Stanford University School of Medicine and the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System. She obtained her MD and Masters in Public Health at UNC-Chapel Hill and completed her Internal Medicine residency, fellowship in Hematology and Oncology, and Masters in Science in Health Services Research at Stanford University.  Dr. Patel’s research involves evaluating systems-level and social factors that influence disparities in cancer and value-based care delivery. Her expertise lies in designing, implementing, and evaluating new models of cancer care delivery with academic, community, and VA oncology practices aimed to improve patient experiences with care, clinical outcomes, and reduce unwanted healthcare utilization and health disparities. Dr. Patel also has expertise in linking large cancer registries to investigate modifiable etiologies for disparate care receipt among populations.
