Let’s Rock Cancer! will also feature remarks from Christopher Lathan, MD, MS, MPH, who is the Chief Clinical Access and Equity Officer at Dana-Farber and whose research centers on the effects of race, class and access to care in cancer outcomes. Proceeds from the show will benefit the Cancer Care Equity Program at Dana-Farber, which aims to reduce disparities in cancer outcomes among local communities.
