Book Description
We are delighted to present the inaugural Frontiers in Oncology "Women in Gynecological Oncology” series of article collections. At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers. Therefore, Frontiers in Oncology is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all fields of Oncology.

Pages : 175
Book Description
This 2006 book examines the interaction of economics and the delivery of cancer care in the global context. It analyses the causes of tension between those paying for care, those providing the care and those marketing drugs and devices. The concept and requirement for rationing is examined in different economic environments. As cancer increases in incidence and prevalence, the economics of providing care becomes a more important subject than ever before. Written by a leading health economist and oncologist, this was the first comprehensive book on the economics of cancer care continues to be of interest to health professionals and policy makers alike.

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
An Evolution of Empowerment: Voices of Women in Medicine and Their Allies is a powerful anthology in which Dr. Shikha Jain, a distinguished board-certified hematology and oncology physician, and Dr. Avital O'Glasser, an esteemed hospitalist and expert in perioperative medicine, bring together a collection of captivating pieces from the Women in Medicine Summit® blog (www.wimedicine.org/blog) created by Dr. O’Glasser. Founded by Dr. Jain, the Women in Medicine Summit® is an empowering 501(c)3 nonprofit platform that promotes the professional growth and development of women in the medical field. An Evolution of Empowerment urges readers from all backgrounds to recognize the pressing need for change and growth in addressing healthcare gender inequities. Studies consistently demonstrate that a diverse workforce improves healthcare outcomes, yet we still struggle to bridge the gender gap within the medical field. Despite the availability of data, finding practical solutions to close this gap remains an ongoing challenge. The collective dialogue surrounding gender disparities in medicine has gained momentum, and it is no longer taboo to share personal stories or advocate for change. This anthology explores concepts that continue to perpetuate inequities in medicine such as the leaky pipeline, structural misogyny, gaslighting, bullying, sexism, and racism. A call to action and a source of inspiration, An Evolution of Empowerment is a must-read for anyone interested in the fields of medicine and science, gender equity, and social justice—including women, male allies, and gender non-binary friends and colleagues.

Immunological Implications and Molecular Diagnostics of Genitourinary Cancer
Author: Moulay Mustapha Ennaji
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0323854974
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
Immunological Implications and Molecular Diagnostics of Genitourinary Cancer updates on recent accomplishments, unifying concepts, and future challenges in the study of tumor-associated immune cells, emphasizing genitourinary cancers. The presence of inflammatory immune cells in human tumors raise a fundamental question: How do cancer cells avoid destruction by immune attack? In principle, tumor development can be controlled by cytotoxic innate and adaptive immune cells, however, as tumors develop from neoplastic tissue to clinically detectable tumors, cancer cells evolve different mechanisms. This book covers research on the immunological implications of genitourinary cancer with a comprehensive view, especially surrounding diagnosis and cellular mechanisms. - Discusses the impact of the immune system on the initiation, progression and treatment of cancer - Provides insights on the important role of the suppressor genes and oncogenes in genitourinary cancers - Shows the advantages of combining clinical issues of urologic cancers with immunological techniques, like immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence - Demonstrates the implications genitourinary cancer has on the human innate immune system
