When Distance Becomes the Diagnosis, Financing Lung Cancer in Rural Communities - Eugene Manley

When Distance Becomes the Diagnosis: Financing Lung Cancer in Rural Communities| Eugene Manley

Why does lung cancer receive disproportionately lower funding for research and treatment compared to every other form of cancer, despite being the leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S.?

Dr. Eugene Manley Jr., Founder and CEO of the STEMM & Cancer Health Equity Foundation (SCHEQ), explores the barriers, possibilities, and progress shaping the fight against lung cancer, particularly in underserved communities. He highlights how stigma continues to influence public perception of the disease, often leading to reduced attention, funding, and support compared to other cancers, deepening existing health inequities.
