Population Health Research Seminar

On May 23 from 3:30 until 5 p.m. March Ryser, PhD, assistant professor in Population Health Sciences; will present "Cancer Overdiagnosis - A Discourse on Population Health, Biologic Mechanism and Statistics" as part of the Population Health Research Seminar. 

Dr. Ryser will discuss the issue of cancer overdiagnosis and overtreatment as a multi-scale problem at the interface of cancer biology, population health and patient preferences. He will highlight recent parallel developments in the fields of cancer biology and population-based estimation of overdiagnosis, and will argue that effective approaches to the problem of overdiagnosis and overtreatment requires approaches that integrate evidence from different spatio-temporal scales.

This symposium takes place at The Imperial Building, 215 Morris St. Suite 210. Can’t come in person? Join by Webex
