The Institute for Health Promotion Research at The UT Health Science Center at San Antonio and UT San Antonio together launched the San Antonio Life Sciences Institute (SALSI) and Cancer Therapy and Research Center (CTRC) Distinguished Health Disparities Lecture Series, which will bring some of the top U.S. health disparities experts to San Antonio to offer the latest trends, tools and advancements in the fight against cancer health disparities. The IHPR is coordinating the series with support from SALSI, CTRC and UTSA.
The series ran from October 2010 to July 2011. Watch video of all speakers here.
