Join the National Cancer Institute (NCI) for an interactive workshop to explore innovative research ideas to better communicate evolving cancer
information.
We know that changing health information can lead to confusion, mistrust, disengagement, and difficulty making health decisions. In part, these
consequences result from a failure to convey the nature of information and scientific discovery, leaving many poorly prepared to interpret and use new information to make health decisions. We need proactive solutions that foster a realistic public understanding
of the values and limits of information to prevent future changes from eroding trust and confidence and to prepare individuals to use new information to make the best health decisions for themselves.
NCI seeks individuals with experience researching or communicating about evolving information across disciplines and content areas. We would also like to hear from social scientists, science communicators, clinicians, and patient advocates, and others who care
passionately about how we might better communicate evolving cancer information.

Apply Before: Friday, May 3, 2024
